birth control
"I've had skyla inserted for about 3 months now. I took painkillers before I had Skyla inserted which was a great help. While it was being inserted, everything that lead up to the procedure wasn't terrible. It felt like very extreme period cramps, and a burning sensation but nothing crazy. Afterwards, I did spot for an hour or so & the cramps were outrageous. I had meds and a heating pad to help, and eventually they went away. Skyla has done a great job so far with helping my period become short and light, and protecting me from an unwanted pregnancy. It is worth it to get, as long as you can deal with a long period after skyla is inserted and extreme cramps for a short sections of time. Pain & blood do go away after the regulation of Skyla."
