"only reason why the mirena gets a star is because i didn&#039;t get pregnant. extreme pain on implantation, and i have a high pain tolerance. i experienced extreme dizziness, headaches, mood swings to the point of breaking down once a month, cystic acne, headaches, and extreme bleeding. constant cervical irritation and bloating with no sex drive. would never recommend it, even though it did its job. i was convinced it was misplaced based on the horrible constant symptoms. when i went to have it removed the nurse acted as if my symptoms were crazy, she had never heard such a thing and my iud was placed &quot;beautifully&quot; and tried to convince me to keep it. i could have killed her. final got it removed and back i&#039;m back to being a healthy 28yo."
