"well i got skyla in september 2016. i&#039;m 24 and i have a child. it wasn&#039;t painful going in for but i bleed for a few days afterwards. my period was normal at first,( i normally see bleed for 3 to 4 days) but 2 months in, i saw my period for 5  days. i have gain about 25lbs and counting. i&#039;m 5&#039;8 and i was 125lbs, i&#039;ve always been skinny no matter what i ate. skyla changed all that. i&#039;ve started working out and  changed my diet and still can&#039;t loose any weight. also at the 6 month mark my period changed again, now i spot and have an extremely light flow for over a week which is annoying. throughout this entire process, i&#039;ve also experienced a lot of headaches, cramps ( even when i&#039;m not seeing my period) and mood swings. giving it a year."
