"I went in expecting some pain and cramping and that is exactly what I got. I am 18 and have never had a child but I hate remembering to take pills so decided on Skyla. The best way to describe the procedure is: uncomfortable! For me, the clamp and cleaning part was just an odd feeling. The worst pain was when the actual device was inserted. It was basically menstral cramps but 100 times worse. I got extremely light headed and threw up all over myself. The doctor informed me that those side effects are normal and I'm fine. After 5 minutes, I did still have cramping but was able to drive home. I had non-stop extreme cramps for about 6 hours after the procedure and they finally went down after taking Midol. The pain is worth the safe 3 years!"
