Birth Control
"I was 21 years old when I got my first skyla  and 24 for my second. I was the first woman in my obgyn to get it when it first came out. It was so new, my insurance company didn&#039;t cover it because there was not a billable code for skyla. Both  insertions did hurt and I was tender for a couple days after. Almost like a period pain. Once the cramping from insertion was over, I didn&#039;t have any side effects or problems. Had the first one removed 3 years later. The NP had problems finding it and had to recruit a DR to come in. He of course found it right away. The first removal was worse but I believe it was because I was so tense from the NP &quot;digging&quot; for about 15 minutes. The second removal was a breeze. I would definitely recommend this IUD."
