"i got skyla inserted yesterday on the first day of my period and i had a good experience! the insertion process is so quick and simple. don&#039;t scare yourself like i did reading these reviews! there were two times where it was uncomfortable (felt like two quick cramps for 3-5 seconds each) and then it was over! only a little more discomfort than a pap smear! i can&#039;t feel the skyla inside of me at all. 

today is day 1 with skyla and my period is very light, but i&#039;ve been cramping periodically throughout the day. the cramping can go on for as long as 6 months. they aren&#039;t too severe and i&#039;ve been taking advil every few hours, but i&#039;m not sure i can last for 6 months. i can barely handle once a month cramps. we&#039;ll see how it goes!"
