birth control
"I got my first Skyla in February 2014 just months after it was released to the public. I had previously been on oral contraceptives as well as Nuvaring. My natural period is extremely heavy, and lasts typically 21 days. None of the oral medications or the Nuvaring gave me the results I was looking for in controlling my heavy and lengthy period. I was skeptical Skyla would help, but was open to giving it a try. I'm so happy I did because my experience has been amazing! When it was inserted it did hurt, and I was in my bed the next two days with severe cramps. I experienced spotting for the first two months, but once the spotting and the pain went away it was amazing! I got my second Skyla today--three years later.  I highly recommend it."
