Birth Control
"Before skyla I&#039;d been on the depo shot for 9 months. I&#039;d had bouts with weight gain (20 lbs!) &amp; depression while on it, so I decided to switch to skyla. Had it inserted 11/20. Took a vicodin before the procedure (didn&#039;t seem to help much). The procedure itself was fairly uncomfortable and painful. It wasn&#039;t debilitating pain for me - just uncomfortable with two sharp cramps (maybe a 8/10 on the pain scale, but they only lasted 30 seconds or less combined). I got it inserted at 4pm and was having 7/10 cramps the rest of the night, took some tylenol PM and slept like a baby. Woke up the next morning without any pain at all! Been having 3/10 cramps last few days, but that&#039;s it. Hardly any spotting."
