"i just got my skyla yesterday morning. i love it so far. i am 20 and i took birth control in the past but i wanted something more reliable/did not have to keep up with daily. i did not think the insertion was that painful. my doctor said i handled it very well compared to other woman. towards the end it was painful but it was tolerable. just stay relaxed and remember to breathe and you&#039;ll be fine. i had a little spotting within the first few hours but after that i stopped bleeding. i had cramps yesterday and i seem to have lower back pain today but pain reliever helps with that."
