Nervous about IUD
| Thu, 04-06-2006 - 11:14pm |
Hello everyone!
I'm not exactly new to the board, but I am a little nervous about my appointment tomorrow to have the paragard IUD inserted. I previously had Minera and the insertion wasn't too bad, but I remember not really feeling all that great afterward. I am more nervous this time, actually, because unlike the last time, I have a lot to do right after my appointment tomorrow! Specifically I need to pick some people up and do a lot of driving. But it'll be okay, right? I can't wait til it's over!
Thanks for listening!

Hey Nikki,
I have the paragard I got it a little over a month ago. To tell you the truth I was a little nervous too, but it wasn't as bad as I expected. The pain of the insertion was worse than anything I have experienced since. Right after the insertion I felt light headed which is completely normal and lasted for only a few minutes. Aftet that I was great. I drove myself home and had no problems afterward. I was actually pleasantly surprised with my first period with the paragard it only lasted four days only two of which had a moderate flow nothing heavy and the cramps were almost non existant. I love my paragard I hope you have as good of luck as I have had.
Everything will be fine.
good luck let us know how it turns out.
