Mirena
birth control
""A textbook insertion" my doctor had said. A year of irregular periods and ruined panties did lighten my extremely heavy flow, so I figured it was a sacrifice I could live with. 

I'd had it inserted in Nov 2014 & about Sep 2015 my 3 week long periods had started. I was under a lot of stress & after 2-3 months of this I decided to call. They told me "your hormones can cause irregular periods" they suggested that I take 800 mg of ibuprofen twice daily for a week every time or get on more meds. Are you serious?? 

Jan 2016, I was on my period, I went to change my tampon and felt that something was still hanging out of me. Hesitantly, I took it out & it was my IUD. Now waiting on my appt, but will not trust again. Didn't get pregnant though!"
