I have an IUD and it went in VERY easy. No pain no nothing. I have not had it removed but I can't imagine it hurting. I've got a copper T which is good for about 10 years so I've still got some time to go on mine. I had my yearly exam with my doc yesterday and asked her about the mirena IUD and she said that it's a progesterone based hormone and that she wouldn't give that to someone trying to lose weight because it'll mess with that. So you may want to go with the copper T because it is non hormonal. It is good for about 10 years versus the mirena which is only 5 as well.
