"this is the third day i&#039;ve had skyla and so far my experience has been excellent. i&#039;d suggest taking ibuprofen all throughout the day and put a heating pad on your stomach (what i did). the procedure was uncomfortable and painful (i cried) but so far, extremely worth it. the day after i got it the bleeding significantly reduced, and today it&#039;s hardly bleeding. first day was the worst but definitely doable. as far as being emotional. the first day i was very irritable but i&#039;m assuming it was because i was hurting and hungry all day. other than that i&#039;ve been great!"
