"hello all! i&#039;m 20, a college student with no kids. i just got the iud skyla inserted thursday, october 15th 2015. the insertion itself, was quick but uncomfortable- as far as pain goes, i would rate it around a 7. but all in all, it didn&#039;t last more than 1 minute. so, now i am two days after insertion and still have mild cramping. better than yesterday however. my period has become lighter and completely stopped today. i am still waiting for the cramps to stop, but they are tolerable- my heating pad, and pamprin has been my bestfriend. at the end of the day, i don&#039;t regret my decision. i haven&#039;t felt moody, nausea, or any really side effects- just mild, period like, cramps. other than the cramps, i am happy with my skyla. i recommend it."
