Been interacting with posts about pain management with IUD insertion. As a gynecologist who routinely offers this here are some practical tips. A 🧵:
Years ago when I was a radiology resident I questioned an OB GYN for ordering a CT on a pregnant patient. I wondered why there was no concern for irradiating the fetus, for which the OB GYN simply responded: “No mother, no baby”. Learned an important lesson that day.
