I had to get an abortion after my Skyla IUD was placed improperly or slipped. I went with a medical abortion at Planned Parenthood and it was nowhere near as bad as I anticipated. I hardly bled at all and a low dose of hydrocodone/Tylenol and some ibuprofen took care of the fairly minor pain. Overall I had a good experience. I am lactating a bit and it's been two weeks but it isn't heavy, only happens when squeezed. Only further convinced me that we have a right to choose.
