"i read several forums before i opted to have an iud placed. i was a person that had a fear that it would affect my chances of having children in the future. the forums, they scared the day lights out of me! so here is my experience:
i am 27 years old. never been pregnant, tried other forms of birth control but either didn&#039;t like the side effects (weight gain, acne, etc), or i forgot to take that darn pill daily! so i talked to my ob about this and he recommended skyla. on the day of the procedure i had scared myself enough that i was so worried it was going to hurt! dr. gave me medicine cytosis (sp) to open my cervix to make implantation a little more simple. this procedure was definitely uncomfortable, but it really didn&#039;t hurt at all!"
