Birth Control
"I have had Skyla for 4 months and I love it! I read all the reviews before and that was a mistake. Insertion did hurt-- there are 3 big &quot;pinches&quot; involved-- but it was over in 30 seconds with no complications. I had very painful cramps for about 12 hours after insertion and spotting for a week or so afterwards but only had to take ibuprofen a few times after that first day and cramps were totally gone after a week. My period came later than normal the 1st time after insertion &amp; I was so scared it wasn&#039;t working! But it was fine and the doc said don&#039;t try checking the strings because most people can&#039;t find them as they curl up under the cervix. Periods are super light but a bit long. Haven&#039;t had to use a tampon in 3 months-just pantyliners!"
