30 Women Share Medical Horror Stories Where They Had To Endure Pain For No Good Reason, And It's Scary How Common The Situation Is

Plus no one told me how much it would hurt until right before the procedure and I had walked there because I didn't live too far away, so I had to literally stagger and stumble my way home, like still feeling completely disconnected from my body, then I lay on the couch for the rest of the day not even able to think about anything at all. By now I'm 2 years overdue to get it replaced but I'm too scared to have the procedure done..

My doctor told me before I got my IUD put in it was probably going to hurt a lot because of where it would be located. I can't even remember what it was like because I just went into shock. All I remember is as if I was floating above myself and her saying in surprise something like "I can't believe you aren't crying and screaming right now" and me mumbling back "I'm just holding my breath and not thinking about it". I'm pretty sure I managed to fully dissociate from what my body was experiencing, lucky me I guess. My doctor also told me "what a cute little cervix you have" (gee thanks?) and that I should probably never become pregnant because of how painful it was. I guess I'm also lucky I had already decided years prior that if I ever decided to raise a child I would adopt, but I can only imagine the emotional pain on top of the physical pain if that hadn't been the case.
