"i have had mirena for 1yr now, i had my doctor insert it after my six week check up, after having my baby. i never tried birth control before but thought it would never hurt to try. my experience with it so far has been very uncomfortable the insertion was horrible. i went into depression, mood swings and weight gain. my sex drive went completely out the window. i want to remove it but i just don&#039;t want to go through the same scenario with another birth control."
