"i&#039;ve had the mirena since july of 2014. i got it put it when i was 16. due to have endometriosis it was the best choice. ultimately it was a huge live saver the pain i had before has gone away. the insertion for me wasn&#039;t bad but i made a poor decision to go to varsity cheer practice the next day,bad idea. i don&#039;t really ever spot on a very rare occasion. i will though if i&#039;m on a antibiotics , then it tends to mess with my mirena and i&#039;ll get cramps and will spot. other then that it&#039;s been a good experience so far."
