"i wanted to write a review because i was skeptical after reading all of the negative reviews from people. i am a 24 year old female who is unable to take birth control pills because it makes my blood pressure high. 



insertion was easy, i had it done on my period and was given misoprostol to inset the night prior. about an hour prior to insertion i took 3 aleve. insertion was uncomfortable, but by no means horrifying. i would say a 4 maybe a 5 on a scale of 1 to 10 (with 10 being the most painful). 



i&#039;ve had some slight cramping afterwards, nothing worse than what i would have on a normal period. i&#039;ve had my skyla for 11 days now, and have no cramping. i do have some irregular spotting though."
