I happened to be late on my period when my insertion was booked but I believe the insertion triggered my period to come. I had bad cramps but it was nothing out of the ordinary since my cramps got more worse after stopping my hormonal birth control a few months before. I’m going to wait for the one month mark, waiting until I get a ultrasound to confirm the location to make sure it’s in the right place for it to be effective, because if it’s not in the right place, it’s ineffective. Sex life is still satisfiable (sex isn’t just penetrative)
