Kyleena
birth control
"First and foremost, this is going to sound counterintuitive, but do not believe everything you read on the internet. The Kyleena insertion was hardly considered uncomfortable for me. I know everyone’s pain tolerance is different, but I’d like to think I have a low pain tolerance and I probably wouldn’t have been able to tell that the insertion was any different than a routine GYN visit. If you consider Pap smears excruciatingly painful, then you may just find this uncomfortable, however it is a quick 3 minute procedure with hardly any discomfort. Maybe, if anything, just some pressure.

Disclaimers: I just had it placed 45 minutes ago, without being premeditated, walked out and drove myself home. I am also Day 4 on my menstrual cycle."
