[quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous]I’m a CNM and remove/ insert IUDs all the time. As many have said correctly above the procedures are quite different and removal is almost always quick and easy. I also have had many patients who avoid coming back for removal due to anxiety about pain after insertion and they are always shocked at how different and easy removal is. 100% agree with prior recommendations for treating with anxiety meds. General anesthesia is not without risk, is expensive, and definitely way way more medication than she needs in her body for a procedure that takes 30 seconds or less.[/quote]

I bet you say the same thing about endometrial biopsies and scopes in office, right? [/quote]

I’ve met some insanely misogynistic CNMs. Their profession loves for women to suffer in childbirth cause it’s “better” and more “natural.” [/quote]

Let’s not forget the breast feeding ‘gurus’ who make you feel like less of a woman if your baby won’t latch. [/quote]
