Levonorgestrel
birth control
"Since I relied so heavily on reviews, I figured I'd share my experience here. I did months of research on IUDs. First wanting a paragaurd, then opting for the skyla because I have metal allergies and didn't want to risk having metal in such a sensitive area. The insertion was NOT BAD. Everyone who claims it is the worst pain they've ever felt must have an extremely low tolerance for pain. It wasn't comfortable or pleasant, but it was quick. The worst part was having my cervix clamped. But I am ok. I am crampy but ok. I'm looking forward to seeing how my body adjusts to it. I am also nervous about the risks- perforation, pelvic infection, bacterial vaginosis, hair loss, weight gain, moodiness, acne, etc. I hope I made the right choice for me"
