I'd love to tie my tubes but it is simply not feasible financially at this time, and I am having trouble finding a willing doctor given my age and childfree status.

I currently have Mirena, and though I love how infertile it leaves me, the weight gain, intermittent pain, irregular period and acne are simply yanking me out of my pro-IUD glow. I'm considering getting it pulled and going back to my trusted Nuvaring (the pill failed on me previously so I'm not thinking I'll go back to that)... What was your experience like, and what was the pain level during removal? Any stories and memories would be appreciated.
