"i got it inserted and it was not painful at all. the slight pinch but that was to be expected. i went with skyla bc it&#039;s the smallest iud. and the iud with the lowest hormones in it. i had it put in july 3rd. it&#039;s now november 15th and i haven&#039;t had a period since oct 6th. kinda freaking out about it but i have heard it can cause you to not have periods after a year of having it."
