    We actually don’t have much in the way of pain relief besides NSAIDs (of which Midol is one), local anesthesia (which I believe is not indicated for IUD insertion), and opioids (I’m sure you’ve heard of those in the news).

      That’s some real great condescending language there. I think I can guess what’s between your legs lol. The CDC recommends lidocaine as a local anaesthetic. Themoreyouknow.jpg.
