"got skyla two months ago. insertion was super painful but quick. i was able to drive and go back to work after with minor discomfort. since insertion no serious cramping but the spotting is nonstop. so annoying. its not enough for a pad but it will ruin your undies. i&#039;m not sexually active at the moment so i didn&#039;t have to worry about that but your man will probably be grossed out for a while because the constant blood and discharge smells. i never feel fresh which is enough of a side effect to be turning me off. i&#039;m hoping this subsides as i hear it does after about 3 months. i will say that my mood swings seem way better. i&#039;ve always struggled with acne so that hasn&#039;t improved but hasn&#039;t significantly worsened so that seems like a wash."
