I just had an IUD placed (Mirena) by my PCP, Dr. Lauren Branham with Cox. My OBGYN didn’t want to try bc she thought placement would be difficult due to the fact I tense up during exams. Dr. Branham said she would be happy to try and prescribed me buspirone to help me relax before insertion. It was honestly less painful than my Pap smears or a cervical check if you’ve given birth. I’m not sure if she would be able to put you under but it wouldn’t hurt to ask and let her know your experience. She is always very understanding and a good problem solver.
