"i got skyla inserted 7 months ago. the insertion was painful and it gave me horrible cramps. my periods got super heavy and i get sharp cramps now. i also have been having my period twice a month! it&#039;s very heavy. it lasts about 11 days now, then stops for 5, then will last for 9-11 days. i wanted my period to stop not to increase. it said that after 3-6 months my period could stop but i&#039;m on my period right now and it&#039;s very heavy. the only upside is that i haven&#039;t gotten pregnant."
