I had one in 2011. They done it as an outpatient procedure, put me to sleep. Took maybe 10 mins

My friend had one. She was completely put to sleep through an IV. She said it lasted 5 minutes. Recovery  was about a an hour she had me drive her home,  cuz of the anesthesia. Nothing was to be inserted vaginally for 2 weeks. So no sex no tampons. No heavy lifting. She was given antibiotics and ibuprofen for pain.  You can message me if you have questions and I'll ask her.
