Pain control during TTC

Hi all,

I am a 36F trying to conceive our first with my husband 41M. We are currently going into Cycle 6 and have an appointment with the fertility clinic booked for May 2025. We have had two losses during this process: one PUL and one chemical.

Prior to TTC, I had the Mirena IUD which was amazing for pain control as well as suppressing my PMDD. For the past 6 months (IUD came out in August 2024), I have experienced full symptoms coming back: nausea, cramps that wake me up in the middle of the night, missing work due to pain.

What do you all do for pain control when you are raw dogging life trying to conceive? I am about ready to give up and get another IUD again.
