Birth Control
"I am 32 years old, (2 children 11 &amp; 2) &amp; just had the mirena removed yesterday, after having it for 1 year. It&#039;s the only form of birth control I have ever used, but I have friends that had used pill, shot, the arm implant &amp; Mirena. Most agree that The mirena was the best.  Few said that theirs didn&#039;t stay in place &amp; one said she had to have surgery to remove because it actually embedded to a part of her body it shouldn&#039;t have.
The only issue I have had this past year is weight gain and irregular periods. I had the mirena removed to see if I feel better without it, if so I&#039;ll have to try to find another form of birth control, if not I&#039;ll probably go back to the mirena. 
Now that it&#039;s been removed I&#039;m having major cramps though"
