birth control
"I recieved my Skyla a month ago. I am 27 years old, single, and do not want children. My doctor was enthusiastic about my decision, she answered all my questions and reassured me it was safe and effective. My experience wasn't awful, but it also wasn't fun. She had a hard time opening my cervix (I am petite at 4'11" 120 lbs), so the process took a bit longer. The moment it opened, I yelped and felt the worst cramp of my life. She counted down from 10 and she was done. I was lightheaded and shaky after insertion. The rest of the day my cramping peaked at a 6 on the pain scale and subsided each day after. No spotting, period was on time with minimal cramping. So far no hormonal side effects or pain. I'm VERY happy with my Skyla!"
