Birth Control
"I&#039;ve had the copper IUD for only 4 days and want to share my experience with insertion. I too made the mistake of believing the reviews about how horrible it was supposed to be. I was nervous and anticipated a lot of pain. But it really was not that bad. The pain felt like a strong cramp and lasted for about 3 seconds. It only hurt when the clinician measured my uterus, the insertion of the copper iud wasn&#039;t bad itself. She did it wrong the first try so she took it out and put a new one it. It was painless! However for a few minutes after I felt dizzy and nauseous. They let me lay there for a while and gave me Midol. Cramping and spotting lasted for 2 days now I don&#039;t feel it. Just random small cramps but that&#039;s all."
