Help!
First time disc user (used Hey Zomi) but have used cups in the past, many years ago with no issues.
I put the hey zomi in yesterday before work, felt like it went in properly and there was no pain inserting. Tucked it in as instructed. But when I was driving to work it started to feel like cramps came out of nowhere, and bumps in thr road hurt. I tried to ignore it and worked (only 3 hours) without pain. But when I was driving home, I had the same pain. I decided to take it out when I got home because I was starting to worry. It seemed to collect fine, didnt have any removal pain. I dont usually get cramps so its very likely caused by the disc I think, and the timing is too coincidental. Ive gone back to using pads.
That was yesterday, its now been about 24 hours and the pain is still there, mainly when sitting. Its not a sharp pain. feels like cramps but bit lower? Can someone put my mind at ease, did you experience this and it went away?
I have had LEEP surgery about a year ago so wondering if its because of scar tissue? Im sad Ive wasted money but more worried that the pain wont go away and Ive caused a problem somehow.
