I'm so glad I stumbled upon this article- I actually just got an IUD placed yesterday.
During the placement it was awful- some of the worst pain I've even felt, but when I left the office it felt fine. Last night, however, I had cramps that would last for about two minutes of intense pain, then just be achy for about three minutes, then intense pain again. I debated going to the emergency room, but I called my doctor and she said it was normal. Today I feel fine (if not extremely horny lol) but I'm nervous about tonight and whether it will be like last night. Overall I feel pretty good about how I feel- has anyone else had any experience with an IUD? I'd love to hear some encouraging stories- everyone always talks about the bad stuff, but I just really need something positive lol
