Birth Control
"I had my mirena inserted over a month ago now, and I thought I&#039;d share my experience with you all!

I am 28, mirena was recommended to me by my gp after a termination of pregnancy. 

I was a bit scared as so far couldn&#039;t find a hormonal birth control that worked for me.

the insertion was very unpleasant, but not excruciating as the misoprostol pill I took 4 hours before dilated my uterus well enough for the procedure to be done quickly and smoothly.

Haven&#039;t noticed any weight gain, acne, bloating or  mood swings, so far it works pretty well for me!

Only down side is the cramping/ovary pain that I would rank 6/10 painwise.

Spotting is not intense, and actually diminishing so far.

Overall pretty pleased with mirena :)"
