Birth Control
"I have never had children, so my experience having Mirena inserted was VERY painful.  It hurt so bad that I felt sick and wanted to lay in bed and cry all day, but I did not have time to take off from work so I had to go back.  I was miserable.  I had cramps and spotting for two weeks afterwards.



After that I was spotting every two weeks for almost a whole week.  After the first couple months I got back to having a period once a month and lots of spotting in between.  I also had severe cramps during my period and spotting.  I have had it in for going on six months, and the spotting and cramping has gotten much better.  My cramps are very minimal, much like they were before Mirena, and my period is very light with no spotting in between."
