question: Hello Doctor, I am of 29yrs old and a mother of a 3 yr old. My husband is abroad and I am going to stay with him by Jan. We are not planning to have a second one until my kid is atleast 5. So I am looking for an opinion for having an IUD as we are not happy with condoms and scared of the side effects of pills. I consulted a doctor in my place and she says it is difficult for her to insert as the cervix is a bit above than usual and it would be very painful. I have read that this can also be done by giving local anaesthesia. I would like to have a second opinion on this.
