"i got mirena as a birth control solution and a solution to my very heavy, 8 day - 10 days painful periods. i wasn&#039;t suggested it by a doctor i pretty much came to the decision myself. i had been on the pill, which didn&#039;t affect me negatively at all (still got very heavy periods though), before that i was in the depo shot, which made me bleed non-stop for three months. so i was very skeptical about mirena. 

i&#039;ve lost my periods all together, and i&#039;ve noticed that when &quot;i&#039;m supposed to be on my period&quot; i don&#039;t have any type of discharge or anything of the sort. what i do notice is when i have a very stressful situation i get discharge for 24 hours, brown-ish discharge. 

no pain, no weight gain, brilliantly perfect!"
