Channel 4 viewers praise Davina McCall for getting her coil changed on TV
Channel 4 viewers have praised Davina McCall for getting her coil changed on TV.
The 55-year-old presenter looked at the biggest problems with contraception in an hour-long documentary that aired last night.
As part of her eye-opening Pill Revolution programme, Davina was filmed having her Mirena coil removed and replaced.
The mother-of-three hoped it would help debunk the 'horror stories' surrounding the five-minute procedure.
Women have for years been put off getting the coil because of claims it is incredibly painful. Some viewers even claimed the 'horrific' pain they endured was worse than childbirth.
Davina shown reacting in real-time described the fitting as 'uncomfortable' but 'not too bad' with the gel.
