Birth Control
"Before I went to get the insert I wondered through this page to find out how good it was and some women scared me about the actual insert. But when I went the only thing that hurt was the measuring of the uterus and that&#039;s it!!!!! But I was on my first day of my period when I went which made it a lot less painful during the procedure. The reason for this is because your cervix is already softened(dialated) and is easier to put the iud in(which makes it less painful lol)I only had it for 3 days now and the only thing is my cramps are a little bit more crampy. But if anyone is ready to get paragard she should go on her period . I know it sounds gross but trust me..you will barely feel any pain and taking some medicine for the cramps will help"
