birth control
"I had Skyla inserted about three months ago and have been mostly happy with my decision. I'm 28 years old and have never been on the pill - I don't like the idea of all those hormones. The insertion itself was quite painful - I have a high pain tolerance but I would definitely say this was the most painful thing I've ever experienced. It was over quickly though - after a couple minutes I was back to normal. My doc prescribed pills for me to insert in my vagina a couple hours before and it made a difference. Since the insertion I have had an increase in intense cramps but no spotting - never used to get cramps before. My period has been irregular - first one was two weeks late!! I was worried and ended up taking a pregnancy test!"
