"i just got my iud (mirena) put in yesterday. i am 23 years old with  a 1 year old son, my doctor recommended the iud because i couldn&#039;t take anything oral that has hormones. i&#039;m a complete b**** with the bc pills. the insertion was very uncomfortable for me and still have mild cramps, but i can say me and my fiance have a piece of mind that i won&#039;t be getting pregnant anytime soon, although we do want another. i read a lot of the negative experiences but everyone is different. so if you want to try it do it, and i love the fact that i don&#039;t have to remember a pill. just talk with your doctor and i trust my gyno so i have no doubts."
