abnormal uterine bleeding
"I am 15 years old, and I had the Skyla IUD inserted due to my extreme period pains. My gyno reccomended a form of birth control, and after trouble with pills/insurance, I decided to get an IUD. It probably didn't help that I was shaking and sweaty from the nerves, but the pain was AWFUL. I felt a very bad pinch, and then a very intense cramp. This procedure only lasted around 2-3 minutes. Afterwards, I had terrible cramps. Lying around for the rest of the day really helped. I still experience cramping here and there, but overall I feel much better. No acne or mood swings, though I do have some brown discharge sometimes. It reduced the pain of my periods, and it prevents pregnancies like it promises. I love it, and the pain is worth it :)"
