"i got the skyla inserted 3 weeks ago. i&#039;m 30, no kids, had nuvaring and barely had a period for the last few years. i started bc at 18 so what i can remember my periods were 3 days every 3 weeks. i will say, nothing can prepare you for the insertion. it was the 2nd to worst pain in my life, #1 being my shoulder coming out of joint. it felt like a hot rod searing my insides. i literally jumped up the table. now, after i crawled back down and new what was coming, i breathed, joked, counted slowly and it was over in 30 seconds. afterwards, cramps &amp; spotting for a week or so. 3 weeks later and i feel great! more energy, higher sex drive, no more spotting. no regrets! love it!"
