"i am 23 years old, i had skyla inserted yesterday (1/12/16) after being on birth control pills since i was 15 with medical conditions i had to change and skyla per my doctor was the best fit for me. insertion took all of 3 minutes, but it was painful. the worst part for me personally was when my doctor measured my cervix which the doctor said my cervix was extremely tight. i took 4 200mg ibuprofen beforehand and this did not help. once measuring was complete and i was ready the insertion took all of 20 seconds and i barely felt it at all. after completion i had to lay there for at least 10 minutes from the extreme cramps i got afterwards. once home the cramps did not let up at all. feeling much better today (1/13) will follow up."
