I think it's going to hurt

Tomorrow at noon I am going to get an IUD.

For some reason, lying naked in the doctor's office while some random lady shoves a pointy piece of metal into my uterus just doesn't sound like very much fun.

I'll keep you posted.

I'm contemplating one. You'll have to tell me if it hurts.

I got one almost a year ago during my 6 week post partum visit. It was uncomfortable during the insertion and caused some mild cramping. But I definitely wouldn't say it hurt. The string bothered me for a couple months, but I think that was because everything was not "back to normal". I love it now!

I HAVE ONE. IT DOESN'T HURT! I've had mine in since 2003. I know this because my doctor told me the only thing I needed to remember when it comes to birth control is that it needs to be removed in 2013!

Seriously, does not hurt. Are you getting the one with hormones that completely stops your period (Mirena) or are you getting the one without hormones--The Paraguard. I have Paraguard because the hormones gave me migraines.

Good luck and happy fornicating with no worries! LOL. Wow, you will be ringing in the New Year happily!
