birth control
"I just got my Skyla inserted yesterday, and I, like most girls, psyched myself out beforehand by reading a ton of horrible stories about it. I went in with a bad mindset. I also got scheduled to have it inserted on the first day of my period, which is not what I wanted to do. They recommend insertion during your period, but usually not the first day. So I had absolutely terrible cramps to begin with. I have to say, the insertion process was definitely the worst pain I've ever experienced in my entire life. I'm 21, no children, and have been on the pill since I was about 18. If I could suggest anything, don't have it inserted on the first day of your period, if you have terrible cramps like I do. I got terribly sick and almost passed out."
