"i&#039;m 42. never pregnant.  got my skyla end of may. the insertion was crazy painful for me. i did not take any pain meds before hand though. for the next week i was in so much pain 800mg ibuprofen and a heating pad couldn&#039;t even touch it. i had to sleep sitting up on the couch, because it hurt too much to lie down. after about 2 mos i finally could no longer feel it in my body and could lay on my stomach. it&#039;s now november and i still have pelvic pain. i&#039;m nauseous a lot too. i have pcos and my dr confirmed i have a sizeable cyst on one of my ovaries now. my period stopped completely by mo 3, although it has always been extremely light. i don&#039;t think i will get it a 2nd time."
