birth control
"Getting Skyla put in felt like the worst pain of my life. The insertion is beyond painful. When my gyno told me to cough I did, but then I screamed and started crying because the pain was excruciating (I'm assuming like childbirth). Then the cramping afterward was so bad my boyfriend had to carry me out the door. I got the IUD because my period cramps were so bad I couldn't stand. Since insertion I've had no cramps! My cramps are gone, my periods are regular, and I have no problems. I am however dreading 3 months when I have to get it replaced! But I would do it all over again because it's the best option in the long term."
