Levonorgestrel
birth control
"I had Kyleena inserted two days before my period. I'm not going to sugar coat my experience. The insertion was the most painful thing I've ever had to go through. My doctor told me I would feel some slight cramping, but instead I had the worst cramps I've ever experienced. I also almost passed out during the procedure because the pain was so bad. I ended up hanging out in the room for a few minutes before I could even move around. For the rest of the day, I had very bad cramps. The second day was a little better. On the third day, I got my period and also had very bad cramps. At one point I was driving and had to pull over because I was in so much discomfort. My period then lasted for 12 days. I had mild cramping and moderate back aches."
