"i have been on pills for 2 years now but kept forgetting to take them and figured that wasn&#039;t too safe. i got the skyla inserted today and my overall experience wasn&#039;t all that bad. i had a bad stomach cramp, during insertion, that is the type of cramp like you have to use the bathroom! lol but then after that i had severe menstrual cramps that lasted for a few hours after the procedure. my overall pain rate of the procedure was a 5 out of 10. now, i am perfectly fine and feel normal! hope this works good in the long run!"
