"only posting to provide a positive experience with skyla. i&#039;m 24 and had skyla inserted about 8 months ago. insertion was definitely uncomfortable/painful (i was not on my period and they say that helps) but it was very quick and you&#039;ll get through it. i drove myself home and had the worst cramps i&#039;ve ever experienced just for a day or so. heating pads and midol were my best friends. i spotted a little bit right after it was inserted and that was it! no more spotting, and then 2 weeks later i got my period like normal. i never went through the weeks and months of spotting like some other girls did. my period has been like clockwork the past 8 months, and are light and last about 4 days, with little to no cramping at all. never been happier!"
