Mirena
birth control
"I think Mirena is a bit of a hit or miss based on comments and personal experience. I had the Cooper IUD for 10 years - no problems and no periods. Then switched to Mirena at doctor's suggestion. No problems with insertion followed by no periods or side effects. When 5 years were up on 2-6-15, I had a new one replaced the same day as old one removed. I still have no periods, but the insertion of this one was excruciating. I broke out in a cold sweat when I tried to get up and had to lie back down another 15 minutes, even after lying there about 15 minutes initially.Now, daily headaches and extreme moodiness. First time, I'd rate 10. This time, not happy. I'm having it removed 4-10-15-will report later if this helps side effects."
