So I got the kyleena just over 2 months ago. I’m still spotting fairly badly. Not trying to be too tmi but I’m going on holiday with my bf in 2 weeks and don’t really want to be spotting. Does anyone have any ways to stop spotting quickly?
I got my kyleena inserted just over 3 days ago. Here’s my current experience. Before my appointment I was lucky enough to be able to take codeine aswell as 600mg ibruprofen. Honestly the insertion itself wasn’t thattttt bad. I hurt a lot and I had to squeeze the assistant nurses hand. But after all the horror stories that I’ve read I did expect it to be the worst experience of my life. It wasn’t. I got a lidocaine spray during the procedure. I was perfectly fine to walk out 10 mins later with only mild cramps. However about 4 hours later I was throwing up with horrible cramps that would not stop even after many painkillers. I eventually managed to fall asleep for the night. The next morning I woke up with sharp cramps but they were only there every 5-10mins for like 30 seconds so it want tooooo bad. Over time the cramps got less and less till now on day 3 I’m almost back to normal again. I occasionally have the odd cramp but it’s not bad at all. Overall it really wasn’t terrible and considering it lasts 5 years I think it’s worth it.
