"I just had my Skyla inserted this morning, so I can't attest to the long-term effects yet, but I wanted to share the experience getting it. I freaked myself out reading horror stories, so I thought I should come back and provide some insights for others. Let me start by saying the whole thing took about 3 minutes - the painful parts were less than 1 minute combined. First, it's just like getting a pap. Then they have to measure how far in to put it - take a deep breath ladies, this is not fun, but over quickly. Then they put the Skyla in - also not fun, also over quickly. You'll have some major cramps for a few minutes, so I'd suggest you stay lying down until you feel pretty normal again. All done! Now, Advil and a heating pad for ~3hrs."
