birth control
"I had the Skyla inserted today. It is a smaller device than the Mirena and has less hormone. 

My gynecologist was amazing and the entire procedure was minutes long. I had it inserted during my period. This was not required, the scheduling just happened to fall on my period. 

It felt like a routine pap until she dilated my cervix, which elicited some pain. I actually thought that was the Skyla being inserted.
She then inserted it and it felt like a very sharp stab. It definitely was painful, but not enough to cause tears. 

I had fleeting mild cramps for the next 30 or so minutes and now 7 hours later, I feel great. 

Prior to going I took three 220mg Aleve. 

I have high pain tolerance. "
