"i absolutely love the skyla. i&#039;ve had it in for about 9 months. i was 21 at the time, no kids, and insertion was a little uncomfortable but bearable. felt like bad period cramps. i had my period pretty heavy for the first month or so and then one day it was gone and i didn&#039;t have it again for a few months. every once in a while when i do get my period it&#039;s pretty light with some cramping  (average period i would say) for a week or less. i highly recommend this. i don&#039;t feel it at all and my husband doesn&#039;t either."
