Mirena - is it worth it?

Question

Deliberating getting the Mirena, need some honest reviews. Don’t hold back ladies!

Answer

Used it for 5 years, not a problem. At the beginning my bf could feel the strings but that’s pretty much it.

Answer

Mine fucked my life up. The side effects we're awful they creeped up slowly for a little less than a year until I just couldn't do it anymore.  Acne, severe depression, cognitive dysfunction, tenitis, hot and cold flashes, severe thirst, nausea, flu like symptoms, the list goes on for days. Every doctor said I was just emotional or my (21) year old body is just going through some changes. I believe I'm well past puberty, thank you. I had it taken out about 5 months ago and I'm still trying to feel like my self again, struggling with the "mirena crash" something you should certainly look up. It's very similar to post pardem depression. I hate it and I hate my doctors for telling me that none of what I was experiencing could have possibly been from my mirena. Fuck that thing.

Answer

I have heard from a few people I personally know who have it that it works great. However I had it and got bad cramps, lighter periods, but then I would be spotting till my next period, and my periods were all over the place, no consistency whatsoever. So yes I would say it works for the majority unfortunately I ended being in that 2% it didn’t work for.

Answer

I loved mine. Had mine for 8 1/2 years and never had a single issue!! No issues when it got removed either! Conceived 10 months later, lost it at 5wks 2days, switched to the NuvaRing a month later and used it for 6 months before ttc. Succeeded on our 4th try, and now 14wks with our 🌈 baby girl due March 11th❣️
