Birth Control
"I got the Mirena about 3 weeks ago, I&#039;m 21 and have 2 children. The ob told my husband that he would feel the strings and no intercourse for 2 weeks. Well the bleeding has been nonstop, slightly heavy. I&#039;m not really sure if I like it or not. My ob, by her own choice had to numb me and give me a shot for pain right before I had it inserted.  I&#039;m not really sure if this is normal. I have acne now haven&#039;t had it since I was 18, I&#039;ve gained weight and I get sleepy very easily now."
