birth control
"Insertion took 5 mins total. I took 1mg of ativan, 800 ibprophen and tylenol after eating 1 hour before. She first put her fingers up there to check which way my uterus was. No pain. Then she put the tools up there which feels like a pap. She put some numbing cream on and told me there would be a pinch. I didn't feel any pinch but I had a slow cramp from my vagina to my hips, back, and abdomen. It wasn't bad at first but built - it was better with deep breathing. I was sweaty and tired but it was done but ok. 1 month in lots of sharp sudden cramping and intense lower back ache sporadically. It's like 1 min of intense pain and then fine off and on. It's exhausting and lots of spotting. I'm hoping this is all an adjustment period."
