Birth Control
"Mirena was the most convenient birth control method that I had used (out of the pill and the IUD) and I did not mind it at all. Overall, Mirena was great but I had only had it for 9 months. I wasn&#039;t getting my period and I wasn&#039;t too happy with that (as odd as that sounds). I just wanted to be regulated and have a lighter period, but I didn&#039;t want it to be completely eliminated. Because of that, it had me paranoid and I would have to take a pregnancy test every month. Other than that, it was fine. My boyfriend and I both couldn&#039;t feel the strings and there was nothing wrong. I&#039;m 18 and I just figured that I should try another form of birth control that allows me to still have regular bleeding."
