"i had my skyla inserted today and had a great experience!! i am a virgin and no kids...seriously had zero pain having this put in. i did insert a cytotec vaginally before my appointment, and i took 800mg of ibuprofen 45 minutes before. i think the key is making sure you have a doctor you trust insert it, i work with my doctor and i have seen her insert many iuds and she always does a fantastic job so that&#039;s why i chose her and i&#039;m so glad i did. right now (3 hours after insertion) i&#039;m lying on the couch with a heating pad and minor cramping. just feels like i&#039;m about to start my period. i can&#039;t wait to see how this does for me."
