"i got the skyla today. i am 21. i had my first pap in march. this is the first time i&#039;ve &quot;taken&quot; birth control. i chose the skyla because it&#039;s smaller than the mirena &amp; lasts for 3 years. i didn&#039;t want a 5 year one because i feel like having something in there for 5 years is more gross than 3 years. it was inserted about 2 hours ago. as of now, i am feeling cramps. just like regular period cramps. when it was inserted, it didn&#039;t feel much different than a pap. i did feel a few cramps, which were pretty bearable. my legs started shaking during the process, but i think it&#039;s because i almost let my nerves get the best of me. my doctor explained the whole process before doing anything, which was good. i would recommend this product!"
