"i got my skyla iud today. i have literally never written an online review but wanted to contribute here. ladies, like many of you, i was nervous. i never considered an iud until my doctor suggested. insertion was quick and not bad. the first part felt like getting a pap with a bit more pain. my cervix is tilted forward so it took a few minutes to get the right angle- that was the worst part because i was scared something was wrong. the actual insertion was painful but quick! my doc is experienced. i tried to use my mindfulness skills to keep breathing. i also focused a lot on relaxing my body to &quot;welcome&quot; my new friend, skyla :) afterwards i walked home. a few hours later i have a little spotting and feel tender/crampy. will update soon."
