"i got the skyla about 3 months ago and the one period i&#039;ve had since then has been super light . i am sexually active so it&#039;s worked so far as to prevent pregnancy , but the one thing i hate is the cramps. every month so far i&#039;ve gotten these sharp and really painful cramps , yet i still don&#039;t bleed. i&#039;m hoping they will fade away within the next few months, but other than that i love it."
