"enjoying the idea of the mirena more than having it at the moment. got it inserted on 10th september 2014 the day that my period finished and have had a heavy period ever since. it&#039;s great to not take a pill every day and sex isn&#039;t painful as i worried, although there isn&#039;t any need to worry because the bleeding is preventing that from happening. i just really hope it settles down and that the bleeding stops. very jealous of everyone who only had a day or two of spotting."
