Birth Control
"My experience of the Mirena has been nothing but good. Perviously I was on the pill for less than 5 years, and that worked fine, but I wanted something that I didn&#039;t have to take everyday and refill every month. Getting the Mirena inserted wasn&#039;t any worse than period cramps, and very quick. Afterwards I had very slight cramping (didn&#039;t even need to take pain killers) and spotting for 3-4 days, then everything went back to normal - no cramps, no spotting. The string is not noticeable at all by my husband, it even took me a second to find it when I check the strings to make sure the Mirena is still in place (which you are supposed to do every month)."
