I had one inserted 10 odd years ago, and the ladies(!) who did it had zero sympathy and wouldn’t even give me Tylenol. I had to take it out 2 days later. Never again.

    Same, had one inserted over a decade ago. No one said anything about pain medication. Drove myself home and felt every imperfection in the road. About a week of severe cramping.

    Went for the follow up and the gyno adjusted its position without warning. When I cried out, she told me the pain would subside in a few days. It didn’t, so I got it removed a month later.

    Glad to see the tides are changing 🙌
