Thinking about Mirena... help!

Deborah

Hey girls!

I’m 10 months postpartum. I started hormone birth control when my baby was 6 months when I stopped nursing. So I’m on my third pack of sprintec, which I did take years ago. This time I really don’t like it.

I feel very bloated & hormonal. Additionally I am cramping what feels like 3/4 weeks. My ambition level is not myself & I’m exhausted. I plan on making an appt with my ob to discuss my options

With my pill, it’s hard to take every time at night. It varies by 2-3 hours. & I do not want to fall pregnant for years again, if at all. (Very busy with my 4 year old & 10 month old)

I am strongly considering Mirena. I am honestly apprehensive about it. I’m nervous about the procedure for the placement mostly.

Please give me your thoughts/experiences
