Birth Control
"I am 44 years old and never had children. My periods over the past two years had become increasingly sporadic and unpredictable while on Seasonique.  I felt the birth control pills were no longer working against my hormones and I became increasingly uncomfortable taking estrogen at my age. I was told the Skyla would be a good option for me.  The actual procedure took less than two minutes. The first object placed was a ruler to measure the inside of the uterus, this was the most painful and caused intense cramping 7/10 pain.  The ruler was removed and the IUD was quickly inserted.  The intense cramping subsubsided immediately and i had mild cramping for another 6-7 hours.  Overall a very good experience."
