A few days later

I've had my period for 6 days now, which has not happened in years. But, it is really just blood. It doesn't have any clots, or tissue. And it's bright red, no dark brownish color like I'm used to seeing, except for the very first day. Also, mild cramps here and there, nothing major though.

Basically, this is a weird period. It doesn't show any signs of stopping either. There's no change in color, it's been on the light side this entire time. I've read other posts about first periods on Skyla and no one seems to have had the same reaction. A few talked about raging mood swings, but I really don't feel like I had any more PMS rage than usual and it happened right about when I expected to get my period. I also got mine right on schedule....

I guess I'm just frustrated right now because there is no consistency to the side effects, especially ones to my body's redactions to it. But at least with Implanon, I could relate to a few people! Maybe it's just because Skyla is so new. I can say that I don't regret getting it at this point! Still pretty afraid to have sex though, the thought makes my vagina cringe :/
