"i recently had the skyla iud inserted while on my period was the best timers get it . i got it  about a month go and so far so good! i love it! during the insertion i felt pain for like 30 seconds of cramping a bit. i recommend taking ibuprofen at 600mg-800mg before. i felt a little dizzy after the insertion and felt better. i was protected right away due to my consistency of the pills. i took ibuprofen for 3 days for the semi cramping not severe at all. i&#039;ve been good ever since with no serious effects. i&#039;ve have been exercising and eating clean not having a hard time losing weight, no pmsing, no acne, and emotionally normal. i love not having to worry about pills anymore. i would strongly recommend it."
