"my son and daughter are 18 months apart so bc was needed. i wanted a bc that i didn&#039;t have to worry about daily so mirena seemed like the perfect choice...especially since all my friends raved about it. it&#039;s horrible! i got it inserted february 2015 during my 6wks follow-up after my son was born. i bled everyday until  may. i have to wear a liner everyday now b/c i never know when i&#039;ll bleed (heavy or lite)...my poor husband! my hair is thinning.  i get headaches like everyday, along with cramping. this shit is awful. i&#039;m getting it removed next month...i wish there was an appointment available sooo much sooner though!"
