"i am beyond happy that i made the switch. i was on the pill prior to my new iud and i had the worst pms and mood swings imaginable. i always felt depressed and this constant dread that hovered over me. i was always hungry, i gained 15lbs when i went on the pill. my gyno highly suggested the skyla. i finally went through with it. insertion pain was excruciating, i will not lie about that.  but...it was worth it, at least for me. i had severe pain for the rest of the week with very light spotting. cramps that would not go away no matter how many pain killers i popped. but after the first week it was smooth sailing. i feel better mentally and appetite has decreased dramatically. i feel zero pain or discomfort. highly recommend the skyla iud!"
