I’ve had my uterus inflated with saline for a specific screening ultrasound. They inserted like maybe 10cc, 5 at a time, so not a lot of volume, and obviously it was liquid. I’ve never been pregnant or anything, and I’m not sure if that would make a difference, but that was the single most painful experience of my life. And I get migraines and have major back problems.
So the thought of not only penetrating the cervix (which is bad enough) but then having something solid enter the uterus (the logical conclusion of penetrating the cervix)? Holy gods no.
