Skyla
birth control
"28 yrs old no kids/pregnancies and had previously only used the YAZ pill birthcontrol. I got Skyla inserted in April '15 and am due to have it removed next year. I give it a 7.5. Insertion was uncomfortable but my OB recommended I take some Ibuprofen before I came in. I was crampy the rest of that period. Every period after that for the following 6 months came with pretty sharp cramps the first few days. The periods now are definitely longer but light enough that I have mostly used light tampons since then. No weight gain, skin didn't change. Sex was fine except that I'd spot after depending how close to my period it was. I've had a few accidents and have not gotten pregnant yet so I would probably use it again if I find nothing better."
