If they would have told me all that I don't think I would have gotten it put in. I would never recommend it to anyone. I have had mine out for about 1 month now and have lost about 6 pounds and my blood pressure is down and I am starting to feel normal again.

  Re: MIRENA IUD Reply Contact I had a mirena iud put in shortly after my third child was born in 03 after the first four or so months I didn't have any problems with it, until I had it for a year, I was pregnant, and not a tubal. We had a touch and go pregnancy and were induced a week early, but made it through. I liked the iud if it worked. But BC just doesn't seem to work for me. I have gotten pg on a lot of them, pill, mini pill, depo, iud. You should look into what will work best for your lifestyle tho. Good luck!

  Re: MIRENA IUD Reply Contact I had my mirena in August of 07 after my second child. From the moment it was inserted I felt I had nothing but problems. With no birth control my period last 3-5 days with the mirena it last 10-14 days every month. I had horrible cramps the whole time. I actually made an appointment for the middle of June 08 to have it removed becuase I was so uncomfortable and low and behold a few days later my body expelled. 8 days after it got expelled I got pregnant. So I am now due with number 3 in March 09.

I feel like the manufactures of Mirena and the doctors that place these devices are not truthful about the possible side effects. I would hate to see anyone suffer like I did. I also made a Myspace support page  www.myspace.com/mirenanomore Please add me as a friend!
