"i got skyla inserted nov 2016. i&#039;m 28 with no children. i got the insertion because my periods were hell to deal with, bleed for 7 days, i would throw up, bleed everywhere, extra poopy, and deadly pms.

the insertion was horrible! the insertion took no more than 5 minutes, but afterwards i cramped, bleed heavily, threw up, and had major gas. i had to lay down in another room because i was so weak and felt as if i was going to pass out. finally got home, cramping and throwing up still. 

(fast fwd) i bleed, cramped, bleed, bleed, until the end of march 2016. as of today, random spotting, random painful cramps (seriously), pms, no weight gain,  and a little bit of acne (nothing major). still better than my period. good luck to your uterus."
