Get tested for gonorrhea and chlamydia if you may be at risk. Ask your health care provider if you should take ibuprofen or similar medication 30 minutes before the insertion. Use an effective method of pregnancy prevention prior to insertion of Mirena, or have it inserted during your period. With Paragard, have it inserted during your period, while you're still on an effective method, or, for emergency use, within five days of unprotected sex.
