"i had my skull iud places in october of 2014. the procedure was quick, just under 10 minutes. i took 800mg of ibuprofen before it to offset the cramping. it was 3 cramps. the last one being the worst but nothing i couldn&#039;t handle. i used to get horrible periods, 7days of bleeding and cramping requiring 800mg of ibuprofen around the clock. the first two months with he skyla i experienced cramping and bleeding just about everyday. at the end of month 2 the bleeding and cramping subsided. i haven&#039;t gained weight, don&#039;t feel out of emotional control and haven&#039;t had a period since! i love this. the only reason for a 9/10 is i believe i may have developed slightly more acne. it&#039;s hard to tell since i had acne before though. still so happy!"
