A member asked:
I have an appointment to get the mirena coil scheduled but im due to start my period around the same time, will this be a problem?
A doctor has provided 1 answer
Perfect timing: Inserting an IUD is easiest during menstrual flow as the cervix is slightly dilated and you may already be experiencing mild cramping that IUD insertion may induce.
