birth control
"I had the Skyla IUD inserted yesterday so this review will only be for the insertion and first 24hrs. My doctor prescribed  Misoprostol (used to open Cerviix) to take the night before my 1pm appointment. I was also told to take a Motrin before bed and 3 hours before arriving for my appointment. 

When I arrived for my appointment and was taken Back for the procedure they performed one last pregnancy test to make sure I wasn’t pregnant even though I was on my period. When it was time to insert the IUD my doctor opened me up with a speculum and then used a very skinny pencil sized device to hold my cervix open and then inserted the IUD. From the time the speculum was inserted and then removed less than 5 minutes passed and it was painless."
