Yes—you can ask about pain control for IUD placement.
Contraception should include a conversation about your goals and your comfort. Dr. Gray offers pain-control options that can be discussed before IUD placement.
Your comfort matters
Patients can ask what pain-control options are available for IUD placement. The appropriate option depends on your history, preferences, clinical circumstances and what is available in the practice setting.
Contraception is not one-size-fits-all
Dr. Gray can discuss IUDs and other birth-control options in the context of your health, bleeding goals, family-planning goals and preferences.
Plan ahead
If you are worried about discomfort, mention it when scheduling so the practice can tell you whether anything should be discussed or arranged before the procedure visit.
