birth control
"I got my kyleena IUD placed 3 weeks ago. The insertion process was fairly painful, a few large cramps that lasted a few minutes and lots of pressure. I experienced minimal spotting and cramping for the next few days and basically just wore a heating pack all weekend. I had a small scare last week when they couldn't find my strings but it turned out to be tucked in my cervix and the IUD is still in place. In the last few days I've had some mild cramping but it may be because my period is coming up. Overall I think the kyleena is very worth it if you can get through the first few months of mild discomfort. I'd like to preface that the discomfort doesn't bother me much because I have many stomach issues already and am used to terrible periods."
