"after trying the pill and realizing that it wasn&#039;t for me, i decided to give mirena a try. my experience with this method of birth control has been nearly perfect.

here are my pros:
-i no longer have a period. as someone who used to suffer from crippling cramps and extremely heavy flow, this is a blessing. 
-i haven&#039;t had any symptoms that i experienced with the pill (weight gain, acne, mood swings, hair loss)
-childless and proud

cons:
-the day of the insertion, i was slightly crampy afterwards. however, i recovered quickly.

overall, this is the best form of birth control. 10/10 - would highly recommend."
