"i decided to have mirena after being on the pill for so long. the insertion was painful but barable. my doctor said because i have had no kids my cervix has never been diallated so it could be painful. she made sure i took ibprophine before the appointment. i&#039;m prone to migraines around my menstral cycle and i noticed they were gone. a def plus for me! but a major down fall was major hair loss and major acne on face, chest, and back. i have scars everywhere. i&#039;m a hairdresser and spent a ton of money on acne and hair stuff, nothing worked. i never had any other problems or had any other symptoms. i would still have it in if it wasn&#039;t for the hair loss and acne in my mid 30s. everyone is different and has their own experiences."
