"i&#039;m 27 never had kids, don&#039;t plan on having any. i was nervous about getting it put in since i&#039;ve never had kids. i had it put in while i was on my period (told its easier). i&#039;m not going to lie it hurt, had a lot of cramping. felt a bit light headed. i&#039;m glad my husband came with me to drive me home.  when i got home i just used a heating pad and took tylenol and a nap. the next day mild cramping. bleeding had stopped. and i would to it all over again. it&#039;s the best birth control for 5 yrs. and insurance covered it, only had to pay my copay. i would recommend mirena to any of my friends."
