Fuck, an IUD hurts a LOT to put in. Way more than the biopsy.

[NAFDA] Spike-centric discussion. Lusty, lewd (only occasionally crude), risqué (and frisqué), bawdy (Oh, lawdy!), flirty ('cuz we're purty), raunchy talk inside. Caveat lector.
YES! Yes, it does. The doctor who put mine in had horrible people skills, which made it even worse. He also, apparently, did not take the time to actually read my chart, as he asked how many kids I had (none, dumbass), and then told me, when he was going over the risks, that if it got into a bad position, they could go in laproscopically, and then just tie my tubes at the same time, which was a big DO NOT WANT. Ahem.
I wish that, at the previous appointment, they had said, "This will hurt like a son of a bitch. And then you will have cramps, and it will be awful for a few days."
"This will hurt like a son of a bitch. And then you will have cramps, and it will be awful for a few days."
Seriously. Although yesterday I stumbled across a post from the Royal College for Women, where they talk about how they use either general or local anesthetic to put in IUDs. !!! Why not me!
Oh yeah, a it of the ladies on Corporette have said it hurt like a mofo. :(
I do not want to get up. I hit snooze about 8 times. Which is ridiculous because it's not like I then got good sleep for that extra hour or more.
Yeah, getting my IUD inserted (and my previous one removed) hurt a LOT. I knew going in that it could hurt, but it hurt WAY more than I anticipated.
Americans are from pioneer stock. We don't need no pain medications.
erika, I'm so very sorry.
Seriously, if it hurts, why aren't painkillers offered? Isn't that what they're for?
Only if you're a male-type person, with manly symptoms of the manly body. Apparently. Women in pain? It's all in our heads.
It's Eve's fault.
