After much deliberation regarding my side effects I decided to keep my Mirena. Although I've hd horrible acne, that's treatable. I'm going to see my doctor about it and figure out a solution. But I don't have to take a pill every day. My periods are lighter. I only cramp for one day during it versus 6 days of horrible pain and I think it's worth it after all. To anyone else considering having it removed; I would highly recommend seeing your doctor about treating the symptoms before you do.
