    It shouldn't be an issue... they sometimes place it while you are on your period or very soon after because it is less likely you would be pregnant at that time and it is easier to do so... this can sometimes make removal easier as well, so it may actually be to your advantage to be on your period at that time.

    While I can speak from experience, from what I have heard it may be slightly uncomfortable but shouldn't be unusually painful. Hopefully others will be able to provide some personal experience... :)
