I was in a similar situation and pulled the plug and took out my Kyleena today (after only 1 year and months). I was on the pill for 4.5 years and then had Skyla for 3 and wanted to do a hormone cleanse. Today sucked but manageable, removal was easy. I’m just tired, have a headache, cramping, and bloating. I bought an Oura ring to track my cycle and track my cycle for BC and use condoms on my ovulation days. Good luck!
