"Just inserted skyla today. I started researching and read horror stories about it. I'm 22, haven't had kids.  I took the day off, popped 800mg of ibuprofen before, and  brought a heating pad with me for after. The sounding was a cramp then the insertion like a two-step cramp (like *cramp*...pause...*cramp CRAMP*...done). I breathed through it and in another 10 seconds he goes "okay! all done!". I literally shot up and said "THAT'S IT!?". 

The pain literally lasts for 3 minutes and I can tell you that stubbing my toe hurts more than the Skyla did. I'm having regular period cramps after%u2014heating pad and some IB and I feel fine."
