i love it I dont get my piroids and i dont have to think about it.

pains went a bit when i first got it in.

Agony for first three months and constant bleeding. Then, brilliant when it settled down. No periods for a while and no endo symptoms. However, terrible monthly mood swings and a gradual return of endo symptoms after 2 yrs. Would still recommend Mirena though.

Once you get past the first week, the cramping is sparse/non-existant. There was a little dizziness and nausea after insertion, but nothing major. For me it was like labor pains all over again. Despite that I'd do it again in a heartbeat! My sex drive is back, no more injections, and best of all, I'm pain-free. After years of suffering with this, Mirena is like mana to me!

it worked good

Great love life, Don't have to worry about pregancy or making a mistake, forgetting a pill or something

Works somewhat. Decreased pain incredibly, however still have lesions, and endometriomal cysts on my ovaries. Had to get surgery. But the Mirena has made it so that I am able to function daily.

I had a Mirena inserted for the past 3 years, having it taken out this past September. Insertion was extremely painful for me, as my uterus was adhered to my bowels and had to be manually "lifted" to make sure that it went in properly. They say that the pain is only very minor, I spent two weeks with a heating pad. I bled for 6 months before my periods got lighter and eventually went away for a few months. I had mood swings, but overall was happy not to have periods for a brief time.

I have to take norethindrone along with the mirena to stop my periods. Very painful to have put in. Reduction in pain/symptoms for about six months and now I get random pain that comes out of nowhere it seems. I don't have my period but do get random spotting every now and then.

have 2 fitted now and am still bleeding
