- Review of IUD Kyleena insertion and tips for the procedure. As a soon-to-be health care professional, I couldn’t find any positive reviews on this (newer to the market) IUD’s insertion so I wanted to share my experience. I’ll be sure to update in about a month anything remarkable!
i really love that you wrote (positive) so i knew i wouldn’t be scared / hearing a horror story 😂
Me to! Before I have been so cared by peoples videos but this relaxed me a bit!😊
Hi everyone! I got my first IUD when I was 16 and today I got it replaced for the kyleena after having the old one for 5 years so I wanted to share a couple of tips with you that really helped me
1. Try to do everything your ob-gyn or nurse tells you to do, they know what they're doing
2. Try to have a full bladder when you have your appointment, I'm not saying that you have to drink water to the point of peeing yourself but drink about 2-4 glasses of water about an hour before your appointment
3. Take some pain killers before the procedure so that the pain is not as bad and some after if the pain is too bad (NEVER MORE THAN THE RECOMMENDED DOSE)
4. BREATHE, RELAX AND CLOSE YOUR EYES. Trust me, it's worth it. The more you relax the less pain you will feel and normally the doctor putting the implant will let you know when you will feel a little bit of cramping so try to take deep breaths and keep your eyes closed (you don't need to see what's going on and seeing what they are working with might freak you out), I know it's uncomfortable but it is totally worth it on the long run.
5. I haven't really seen any comments on how the extraction of an IUD works out, and for me it was really fast. My doctor just pulled on the cord and it was out. Honestly, I felt more discomfort in the couple of second that I didn't have any device inside me than after the new one was implanted. (I say this because I read somewhere that IUD's can inflame the uterus and got really scared that the insertion of the Kyleena IUD would be much worse that my first one, which it wasn't)
6. Give yourself a pep talk before, tell yourself you’re a strong badass woman that is taking care of herself. The mind can do wonderful things
7. I'm not gonna lie, my first IUD experience was really painfull and I had very bad cramps, and it took about 10 minutes of multiple doctors trying to put the implant on for it to work. My new ob-gyn told me it was because my uterus was a little tilted and my first ob-gyn should've bent the inserting device a tiny bit so that it would go in, so don't be afraid to tell your doctor to bend the the inserting device on the tip if you have the same problem. (having a full bladder also helps with that)
8. You might bleed a little or a lot for the first couple of days and my ob-gyn recommended I took some vitamin c to help with that
9. My boyfriend complained a little at first that he could feel the cord when we were having sex. I talked to my ob-gyn about it and she just cut the string a little bit so that it wasn't as long and the problem was fixed, so try doing that if you are poking your sexual partner after 3-5 times of having sex
10. Finally, know that you are doing this because of you and if anything were to go wrong you can just take it out and try other methods to prevent unwanted pregnancies
Hope this helps!!!
Y did u have an iud at aged 16

I’m getting kyleena tomorrow and I’m literally having the worst anxiety, but this really helped me calm down😂😂
$harpHarp how is it now that you’ve had it for almost a year??
me rn
How do you feel about it bow after 2 years?
I got it and it was wayyyy better than I thought it would be because of all those scary horror stories like you said. I have a very low pain tolerance and usually get anxiety over medical stuff like this. I had taken advil and CBD beforehand and I think the CBD made a big impact. It literally just felt like a had period cramps for like 10 seconds and then it was fine. The whole thing lasted about 5 minutes and when it was done I literally said “wait is that it??” I’ve now had it for a little over 3 months and the first couple of periods were worse than normal but now I only have light bleeding.
I just wanted to share my positive experience because I feel like everyone online has only shared their negative experiences!
Emily Margolin wait I’m so glad you said cbd helped... getting one on Wednesday and freaking out lmao
what kind of cbd did you take? I'm getting it in like 10 days and I'm really frekaing out. someone please help
Thank you so much for this!! I got Kyleena inserted this morning and I watched several videos about it this night before, including this one. There is very little out there about it and it all sounds very scary. I agree with you 100% and had almost the exact same experience and situation as you. Idk about you, but my doctor called in a prescription for me take take one pill the night before and one the morning of (I think it softened my cervix?) and she also had me take 800mg of ibuprofen an hour before my appointment. Idk if that stuff actually helped, but my insertion process went fine. I did not pass out, vomit, or feel any nausea, unlike the other reviewers. I didn’t even lay down afterward and wait to leave, and I felt no cramping for the first hour or two. I would say the most painful part lasted only about 15 seconds, and like you said it was pretty sharp and stabbing like an insanely strong cramp. I believe it was the speculum thingy opening up my cervix, not the actual IUD being inserted. But if you can survive that short pain (breathe, breathe, breathe ladies!) you will have 5 years of no pregnancy, and lighter or no periods! Remember that before you let a short, one-time painful experience scare you away from an IUD! I will say, most of the rest of the day involved a lot of painful cramping. My doctor said to take ibuprofen for pain, but I didn’t find that very helpful, so my advice is: Midol and/or Advil, a heating pad, and lots of laying down. I don’t normally get much cramping with periods, but I’d say that strong period cramps are what it feels like - I got very severe cramps when I first got my period at 12 y/o that would make me double over on the floor and cry, and this is probably not quite that bad. From what I’ve read, I should be a lot less cramps tomorrow and able to go about my normal activities. As far as bleeding: I am on my period so I already was bleeding, but it is a bit heavier now with the IUD. Despite some discomfort at first, I highly recommend the Kyleena or really any IUD! To me it is a god-send - you can’t beat 99%+ effectiveness, easier periods, little to no side effects, and 5 years of worry-free coverage!
Also, some things I didn’t know beforehand but may be helpful... my doctor said no tampons for the first 6 weeks as this may cause the IUD to come out, so any periods or spotting will be maxi pad-only at first. She also said that condoms must be used for the first 21 days to ensure no pregnancy occurs (although I plan to use them anyway, even with the IUD). I also do not see myself working out for at least the first week, but that is up to you and your comfort level. Hope this helps someone!
Allison L thank you for such a detailed comment. I’m about to get the insertion, and so I’m reading everything!
Olivia B How did it go for you?
I’m considering getting it myself. I have to schedule an appointment for it. 😄♥️✨
Allison L I had the cramps you had when I was younger from periods and I usually have horrid period cramping
It's great that your doctor gave you pills to soften your cervix and 800mg of ibu. :)
My doctor did not, so I arrived having taken only 200mg of ibu, not on my period (I read this can help as your cervix is a little more dilated), no cervix softener, no local anaesthetic.
In hindsight, I would highly recommend asking for whatever prep measures possible, as for me it was extremely painful both during the insertion and the hours after.
You might be one of the people who barely feel it or you might be in the worst pain you've ever felt, so why not be prepared.
Also, I would recommend having strong painkillers at home, just in case.
I did not and I was surprised by very strong cramps the whole rest of the day. I couldn't walk or talk and to be honest with you, I cried. They were worse than any period cramp I had experienced. Ibuprofen and naproxen had no effect.
I share my experience, not to scare anyone, but simply to recommend prep to make your own experience as comfortable as possible.
The other thing I want to mention is: side effects include being light headed and nauseous right after.
The insertion was the most painful thing I've ever felt: a few seconds during the measuring of the uterus and then when the IUD was put in. I thought: okay that was really bad but now at least it's over. I immediately came off the table, sat down and we had to go through some forms.
Maybe 5 minutes later I suddenly felt increasingly nauseas. I didn't know nausia could be a side effect so I felt weird about telling the nurse, until I suddenly had to get up and vomited in her sink (really sorry!). I read that other people were made to stay on the table for up to 20 minutes, perhaps that would have helped against the nausea and vomiting so you might want to consider it.
Finally: just to be sure, I recommend having someone pick you up. I, again, thought I would be fine so I walked home but I was nauseous, light headed and crampy so that was not a fun experience.
I'm only sharing this because in hindsight I wished I'd had a bit more knowledge and been more prepared for the side effects.
I got my kyleena in last week and I’m honestly confused by all the negative reviews. It was the easiest process ever, and the only thing that was uncomfortable was the clamp they put on your cervix to keep it straight. And it felt like a cramp/hard fart to be honest.
Well, I wish I would have watched this before hand. I wasn’t instructed to take any pills beforehand, so after insertion, I had cramping pains for about 4 hours, but after resting and using a heating pad, the pain subsided.
Same. I read online comments and it's stressing me.. I'm also worried to have acne again... I don't know if I want it anymore... Thank you for this encouraging video
From a fellow WILDCAT, thank you so much for posting this! Calmed my nerves and felt like a friend was telling me it was all going to be okay! You rock! GO CATS!
Good Sam has the NP I went to! go cats!
I just found out I'm not supposed to be taking the combination pill due to my migraines with aura as well. The IUD is my next option. This video helped me out a lot!
Hallie Barenz that's exactly why I have to get my IUD too!!!
Girl same!!! Im freaking out to get it next week and I saw a live insertion and that’s what is causing my anxiety , thanks girl you made me feel better
I’m looking into Kyleena. I’ve been super nervous about it due to the possibility of mood changes that other women seem to experience. Because I already have depression and anxiety. Awesome review! Nice to finally see a positive one!
Madison Powell girl, I have pretty severe depression too, but it has the smallest amount of progesterone so you should barely even notice it! Best of luck
I also have migraines with aura and was recommended that I come off the patch. The insertion was the most painful thing and I threw up and almost passed out! So far a good experience with kyleena. I’ve had it over a month and can’t complain. I gained weight but not much
I'm getting kyleena tomorrow! I suffer migraines, clinical depression, and pelvic floor congestion so I get pain a lot there. The only hormonal thing tested that came back wrong with me was I have heat intolerance not associated with any diseases though. I've never suffered from acne and am thin overal. 1- thank you so much for all your videos!!! I feel a million times better after this. 2- if anyone watching or in the comments wants to ask me about it after I get it tomorrow, a week from now, a month, 3 months, etc just comment here! If i get any acne, mood and depression changes, migraine issues, heat tolerant issues, or worse pelvic pain I will DEFINITELY update if anyone wants!! Thanks again:)
HI!! Can you update please. I suffer from depression and anxiety as well as occasional migraines, how are you doing mood swing/mental health wise related to hormones?
Please update us 🙏🙏
Hi there! Can you please update. It sounds like I have a similar body type to you and depression. Much appreciated :)
THANK YOU FOR THIS. I watched so many terrible review videos… this makes me feel so much more comfortable
Guys insertion really wasn’t painful for me. I was so scared. All I felt was period cramps during the measuring and the insertion. But I’ve honestly had worse cramps from other periods. Cramps were mild to moderate after for a few hours.
THANK YOU for making this video! I’m getting mine in 2 weeks and I feel so much better ❤️❤️
Needed this! Getting mine in two weeks but have been giving myself anxiety with all these horror stories online 🤣
I just got it today. It went surprisingly good. Took 800mg ibuprofen + 1g paracetamol one hour before, and it was very easy. I didn’t feel pain at all 😃😃
So informative and friendly. A big thank you in behalf of all women 💕
Thank you for making this! I'm going tomorrow to get one in, I have a 10:45am appointment and I was honestly scared for it but this helped ease my nerves a bit so thank you!
Good luck!
How did it go??
Thank you for sharing this. I had the same experience and couldn’t find any videos about the process.
I got mine this morning.. the insertion was painful because I was stressed and during 3 hours I had cramps.. Still a bit painful but with painkillers help me a lot. Otherwise for me I heard a lot of positive reviews about Kyleena. Your videos helped me thanks 😁
Got mine today and I didn't think it was painful at all and I have no cramps. So far happy.
I also got the Kyleena! The insertion wasn’t terrible but the pains that followed after lasted for for about 4-5 weeks... even with medicine. And it’s month 2 and Im still bleeding, but everyone body is different and reacts to it differently. But now I have no pain and I’m just bleeding and the dr told me she’d help me stop if I’m still bleeding in 2 weeks. But overall recommend!
I'm getting the liletta iud today in a few hours! I'm super anxious. Will post an update on how it goes :)
Mine went super good! Quick and easy. Felt like getting shot in my cervix and then really bad cramps (the kind that make you curl up) for maybe 2 minutes
I’m getting mine put in on Friday. Had the Mirena and Paragard before. Para made me bleed like a flood, Mirena caused severe itching of undetermined origin. I’ve had them inserted so many times it doesn’t faze me anymore.
Everything you said I did the same thing. Reading online horror stories, that almost made me back out. I got Kleena this morning and it feels just like menstrual cramping. Deep breathing helped me too. Great experience overall in my experience.
I had the nexplanon implant in my arm and this is what I’m getting next do to weird side effects of the implant, and this helped calm me down, she related it to the pain of the implant and said if I could handle that, I can 100% handle this and this video also helped me a lot!
Last night I couldn’t sleep at all because I was really anxious about the pain and I’m going on a trip for 2 weeks the day after insertion. I just had mine inserted today and the pain really wasn’t that bad at all!! However, my doctor said the pain depends on how severe your cramps are when you get your period so its different for everyone. I barely get cramps on mine, so on a scale of 1-10, I’d rate the pain like a 4. I also took 800 mg of Ibuprofen an hour before the insertion so I guess that helped as well. The whole procedure only lasted like 5 minutes, so it really wasn’t that bad. Good luck to anyone getting it!
I will take ibuprofen. I had one 7 years ago and it was pain full, but i didn't take nothing in this time. I hope that ibuprofen ca n help me.
I talked to my gyno about about this last year. I went back on Seasonique/Seasonalle after a bad experience with mirena. I also have migraines as well. I'll ask her next week. :)
i just got mine and i needed to hear all this !!
How did it go ?
Thank you for making this, I just got one and this is really helpful
5 months later, how has everything been with the iud? Getting it soon! Thanks for your help 💕
Finally posted an update! sorry for the delay!
Getting mine soon! Thanks for this video😌🙏🏾
I got Kyleena yesterday and I am having cramps but I am glad I got it!
also this is a great video thank you for posting!
I love mine. I had the copper one first but too much bleeding so I switch to this one and we'll see. I'm looking forward to no period. 😁
I'm a pharmacy technician 🥰 girl I get mine next week and I also get migraines. I'm nervous. I'm having mine put in with an ultrasound. Thank you for your review 🤩
Hi Gabrielle! Would you mind sharing an update? How have you liked the IUD, did you get any symptoms? Thank you in advance ☺️
I loved your video I came on it when I got kyleena in March and I love it plus I’m from Ecuador love that !!
Lexington Kentucky in the house! Whoop whoop! 😂 thank you for this video. I'm doing research on different IUDs and I'm going with Kyleena. ♥
I got Kyleena inserted. It aches a lot, but I believe its gonna be worth it. Thanks to Nimesil I can handle it
I’m gonna try this! I was on nexplanon since I was a freshman, but I’m fat now I’ve gained 30 pounds since and I’m only 17.
I’m getting the same one in a couple weeks and I’m terrified. Well I wasn’t originally but after watching videos I am now freaked out. My doc is giving me a bunch of pain and anxiety meds beforehand so that is good. I’m getting it because I have super heavy and bad periods. I’m hoping this isn’t as bad because I am used to them. I have gotten piercings besides my ears like you said 😂. And I got a catheter shoved up my urethra once.
Definitely considering this type of IUD
I got my Kyleena on 1st Feb. Excruciating cramping for 3 days and nothing eased the pains. I then got temperamental cramps but nothing unbearable. I was due my first period on 20 Feb with all my usual symptoms and got two days of spotting but the rest of the week i still felt bloated and ‘blurgh’. On 28/2-1/3 i got light bleeding, from 2/3 till now (5/3) im on medium flow. I did go gym today which i think has made the flow heavier.
Im hoping it’ll stop in a few days cause im on day 6 😭
Has anyone been through anything similar in terms of bleeding?
hey, thank you for the videos. i have inserted kyleena 6 weeks ago, i still have little bleeding and cramping. is it normal?
Thank you for posting this!
Aww I’m about to get Kyleena and this is great review, I’m glad it’s positive ! I never get cramp from period much either I hope it won’t be that painful. Did you get any cervical opening drugs?
Sorry I missed this! No, I didn't take anything besides ibuprofen!
I had a pretty positive experience with insertion too, but b4 I had heard so many horror stories.
I am getting the kyleena on the day after .. I freaked out seeing all the bad reviews . Ur video has given me back the courage .. I am going to get this done.. thank U so much... but I am still confused whether to get kyleena or copper one ... Plz guide
i can't offer official guidance, because that's definitely a decision for you and your doc, but Kyleena is hormonal whereas the copper one doesn't have hormonal contraception in it, the copper does that itself. There are differences in which one lasts longer, size, and periods/hormonal changes to talk with your doc about!
Thanks for making this video!
That shit hurts so bad well it did for me everyone is different I just wish I had taken some painkillers before hand it hurt at the moment for like 30 seconds and then again soon after. It still hurt for about 3-4 hours like really strong cramps. But it was pretty fast insertion
I'm getting it today and I'm shitting my self 😢😢😢 . Thanks for this video hunny, really helped. Xxx
CarlyNoah how was it?!
@@kaitlynharris7991 Horrific. Only because I have a vaginal prolapse so mine wasn't as straight forward. The cramps lasted about a day and a half. Xxxx
@@CarlyCorrigan1 BRUH NO WHAT
@@CarlyCorrigan1 Damn I'm about to cry
Can you have sex within the 7 days if you use condoms? Or will it be uncomfortable and will you be bleeding like having a period?
Thanks for the info.
this reaaaally helped me.. thank u!!
Hi I got mirena IUD in October 2018
I was supposed to get my iud in Saturday and I literally freaked the fuck out because of everything I read/saw online. I cried myself to sleep and ended up rescheduling my appointment.
Romanty Lazo me af rn. I have an appointment for Tuesday and I am so so scared. 😔😪 I hate any type of pain so much.
@@alyssal4617 I hope everything went OK!
This was me to a T. I didn't reschedule because I was literally going to be out of birth control, but I was panicking so much. I hope everything worked out for you!
Alexsandra Nilges I didn’t go. I chickened out after watching a video of a live insertion on a plastic dummy. I know, I know. Horrible idea but I can not tolerate pain at all. Maybe in the future I will reschedule but as for now I am going to continue on my birth control pills. I am 20, never know what God has planned for my life within the next 5 years. Thank you so much for this video! It has helped me and a lot of other girls get through this journey! 💖
Thought my internet was fucking up at 2:06.
Edit: Anyway lol thank you for sharing your experience! Considering getting an IUD, just not sure which. The Kyleena seems like a good option, but I'm not sure if my gyno office offers that specific IUD.
Sorry for the delay in responding, this comment made me laugh hahahaha. I was like omg someone is here and I'm filming a UA-cam video lmfaooo
Thank you for this!
What was your experience with your migraines with aura I have that too and am also looking into this any way we can talk directly about some more in depth stuff?
Thank you for this omg
Have you noticed any changes from the pill to the IUD like sex drive or tiredness or any other side effects?
I haven't noticed anything out of the ordinary except for the fact that I am way less stressed about birth control! I will say I don't notice I need as many naps throughout the day, however that may just be because I'm not in school at this moment!
I'm getting the Kyleena brand IUD this coming week and I have a dentist appointment later in the afternoon... I hope I'm not cramping badly so I won't have any issues at the dentist's 🤣
Hey girls, I’ve been on the kyleena for a little over 6 months. Just going to tell you my experience. I got it back in November. I switched from the pill because I wanted something more permanent. Well the insertion process for me wasn’t the best ( keep in mid I’m 5,1 and 110 pounds. So I’m pretty tiny) they actually had to switch from Mirina I think that’s what it’s called to kyleena because it’s smaller. Some people don’t get Liam at all, but I had pretty extreme pain for a couple of seconds but I think it was because I was so tense and nervous. After that I had the worst cramps I had ever experienced for 2 days. And for the first month you can kind of feel it, it’s hard to explain but you know it’s definitely there. Now I’m going to explain my experience with my iud and my sex life, for y’all who are sexually active. So the biggest thing I noticed was I could feel it in certain positions, so my sex life changed a bit. And it would actually be a little painful if he went too far. Sorry for the tmi. But another big thing is he could feel the strings and they would poke him. So that was a huge downside. This went away after I’d say 3 months tho. But after a while of having it my periods got very irregular and I have random intense cramping. And my cramps got a lot worse with it. But it did make my periods extremely light to non existent. I’ve also had weird symptom where during sex I had extreme pain, and I think it could of been related to the iud. I think it might of been muscle spasms. It was pretty weird. But symptoms I havnt gotten that other people have, are weight gain, acne, heavy bleeding, mood swings. The only really negative thing I’ve had with it is my change in my sex life. It’s just not for me anymore and I’m getting it taken out. Hope this helped in some way!
Random thought on your super sharp pains, have you ever been checked for ovarian cysts? Sometimes small ones can rupture and cause that kind of excruciating pain, speaking from experience.
Alexsandra Nilges I haven’t, I was thinking of getting screening for this anyway. Thank you for suggesting!!!!
@@emmaboyce2541 My OB missed them with a manual exam, and I had two rupture before I was diagnosed via ultrasound. It can be quite expensive to do it that way though. Not to scare you at all! I just remember thinking I was crazy when mine ruptured because I was in so much pain, then when I was diagnosed I was like oh thank god there was a reason!
Alexsandra Nilges yeah it’s worth getting checked out just in case though. I will actually bring this up with my gyno.
I’m getting mine monday and i’m nervous already..
I am terrified about the string! Will it tangle in with a tampon? What if my hubby and I are having rough/hard sex, will he pull it out? Will it jab him?
V late reply so you may already have your answer. but it's usually cut so short, it wouldn't even meet with your tampon string. It's literally like half an inch below your cervix so you have to really look for it when you're checking the strings, let alone when you're not thinking about them. They're also so thin, you'll both be completely unaware of them
I’ve had it for almost two years
Any side effects for you?
Marcela Santos really bad cramps
Major problems caused from this: numbness in limbs, always dizzy, fatigue, ext.
that may have been specific to you, but it's not common with Kyleena, I'd talk to your doctor about that!
The most common are as follows:
>10%:
Central nervous system: Headache (≤16%), migraine (≤16%)
Dermatologic: Acne vulgaris (6% to 15%), seborrhea (1% to 15%)
Endocrine & metabolic: Heavy menstrual bleeding (5% to 59%; generally bleeding lessens after the first 90 days), amenorrhea (≤42%, increases with duration of treatment), intermenstrual bleeding (23%), ovarian cyst (5% to 22%; includes symptomatic and asymptomatic cysts)
Gastrointestinal: Abdominal pain (≤23%)
Genitourinary: Abnormal uterine bleeding (52%), irregular menses (25% to 43%; menses becomes more regular after the first 90 days), vulvovaginitis (11% to 24%), pelvic pain (≤23%), vaginal infection (9% to 19%), vulvovaginal infection (8% to 19%), vaginal discharge (4% to 15%)
I’m getting the marina August 16, 2018
I just got it inserted today...it was a bit painful (the cramps) but “doable”. However, I fainted afterwards. Did this happen to anyone else? The OBGYN said there is a nerve that can make this happen to some women. I got really nauseous and went out. After about 15 minutes I was alert & awake...I’m just curious if this has happened to anyone else. Also did the Kyleena make your periods stop?
I'm getting mine today and I am so freaking nervous but I'm trying not to panic lol
i asked if i can scream. so i did and cried. i’m so brave :) will i do it again, no. do i regret it? no.
thanks gurl i just got mine inserted !!:)
Update is posted!
Thank you for this babe
Alex can you let me know if this made your periods lighter? I have really heavy periods but I don’t want mirena because it has a higher dosage of hormones. I’m 29 years old and I’ve never been on birth control but I’m honestly so sick of these heavy periods.
I can't personally respond to that because I never got periods/if I did they were really light. I used to take my birth control straight through/didn't take the placebo week. The information I was given did say over time your periods become lighter or disappear all together!
I just got Kyleena inserted exactly a week ago and I thought it would lighten my period. Usually my periods are 4 days, but my period has lasted 8 days for the first time ever. I have the hormonal version, not the copper version. I have also cramped ever since the insertion.
Mocha18 I don’t have a period at all
@@mikaylavandenberg6942 on the Kyleena?
Id love an update! Even if its just positive things and nothing bad happened. :)
finally posted an update! sorry for the delay!
I'm getting my kyleena this week and i am soooo scared.
you'll be okay! big deep breaths and it'll be over before you know it :)
Hey girl don’t be scared, at all!. I got mine back in October. I have anxiety so everything really freaks me out. It’s better not to freak out before you get it. Don’t watch videos on it and don’t read reviews. It’s best to go in not knowing what to expect, TRUST ME. It’s different for everyone. For me it was like getting a shot, it’s a quick pinch. And you get cramping, but like normal period cramping. It literally took them 3 minutes to do the whole process. Trust me it’s not bad at all, you got this!!!
Hi! I’m getting Kyleena in a few days and I also get migraines with aura. Have you had any side effects like migraines or mood changes with it?
Hey! I haven’t had but one migraine since and I believe it was a tension headache that caused it. No mood swings, my boyfriend says I’m less quick to explode on him lol. I’ll post a follow up video soon! I just got back from being out of the country (:
Hi! I’m getting the Kyleena on Friday and I’m petrified! (Because of other videos and reviews!) I also get migraines with aura but I was wondering more about acne. Have you noticed any changes?
Take like 400-600mg of ibuprofen ~1 hour before! Don't be worried! I've been there, been absolute terrified to the point of giving myself a panic attack, and it was not worth it! Everything went perfectly fine, didn't even hurt enough to cry! And if anything, I've noticed less headaches. Nothing else of note! woo!!! Good luck!
nope no acne (:
How about your menstrual cramps? It's less painfull with Kyleena? :-)
I just recently had a very bad set of cramps though I'm not sure I'd attribute them to Kyleena!
Do you have any skin or weight changes or moon changes since having Kyleena?
my acne recently flared up but i'm now on spironolactone and it has helped a lot! no weight changes, positive improvement in mood!
ahhh i’m getting it tmr i’m scared
I’m getting the kyleena Tuesday and I’m so nervous
I had mine today and didn’t hurt at all
Boyfriends are allowed with you during the procedure? (Please say yes because I am nervous and would feel better with him with me)
hey! From what i've seen it may depend on the doctor's office you go to. Some girls have said that no one was allowed back with them (which i find insane). It should be whatever the patient wants, but you could call and ask! Either way, bring him anyway because it's nice to not have to drive afterwards.
Alexsandra Nilges thank you
I have that iud done too
I had my in today
Afterwards you will feel camps
i got this today and soo much cramping but i expected it. im sure it normal haha
