"i read all these reviews before going in to get the skyla inserted and i was terrified. however, i felt little to no pain. the doctor gave me medication to soften my cervix the night before and i took a few advil 30 minutes before the procedure and i was perfectly fine. i saw people commenting saying this was the worst pain of their lives and i understand everyone reacts differently, but it really isn&#039;t bad at all! only some pressure and cramps for a couple minutes. it&#039;s only been a few days since i&#039;ve been on it but i would definitely recommend."
