"i have a love/hate relationship with mirena. when it was inserted, it was uncomfortable for sure. i also bled like the river nile for about a month straight, my body took a break for a week and then bled again for another 2 weeks. i had it placed in june, it&#039;s now the end of october. i spot every now and then and almost always have brown discharge. however, i am prone to long horrendous periods and migraines without bc and since the initial bleeding has stopped, my migraines are fewer and the bleeding seems to be as well. but, i have acne. on my chin, neck and back and that is really frustrating. weight hasn&#039;t changed, but bloating is present, and breasts are always tender. yeast infections too. i&#039;m considering removal."
