"i&#039;m writing my experience due to the fact when i was researching skyla i couldn&#039;t find very many reviews....my experience wasn&#039;t horrible yet wasn&#039;t the best i decided to get skyla in oct of 2014 it was newly out i decided on it rather then mirena since skyla was lower dosed and smaller i haven&#039;t had any kids initially the insertion did hurt but wouldn&#039;t say excruciating dr wrote for a valium before hand so that helped i&#039;m sure after insertion felt fine went to work didn&#039;t have any crazy cramps or bleeding all was good up until about 4 months in i started getting crazy cystic acne on my face and back never had acne before and started getting really bad sharp pains here and there so i waited skyla out for about 7 months then had it removed"
