Birth Control
"I just got Mirena inserted yesterday. The whole procedure took only a few mins (my gyno even gave me a Pap smear at the same time. Called it the &quot;royal treatment&quot;! HA!). There was a little cramping but nothing unbearable. I didn&#039;t take any medications (because I forgot to) beforehand. I was perfectly fine afterwards and went about my day as normal. I did have some spotting a few hrs later but that&#039;s about it. I have had two children in the last 3 yrs, my youngest born 4 months ago. My Gyno also made me come back on the tail end of my period. Those two factors may have played a part as to how easily it was inserted.  No complaints so far. Will update in a few months."
