Birth Control
"I chose Skyla hoping that it would be a practical and mindless form of birth control considering my husband and I were moving to Thailand for a year and would be traveling around Asia unsure of what kind of other methods would be available. I just got it removed and had it in place for little over a year.  The first 6 months, I had horrible cramping, like I&#039;ve never experienced before, and irregular unpredictable periods. My periods became more regular but still with uncomfortable cramping. I experienced no weight gain, as many women fear...and already had acne and skin problems prior. I had it removed ultimately for the discomfort and lack of control I felt in not being able to do something immediately if I felt unsafe or uncomfortable."
