"i received the mirena today finally, i had been looking at the reviews and they wasn&#039;t good reviews so decided i was going to give it a try anyway. everyone has different bodies along with different symptoms i went in an my doctor told me my uterus was tilted and i was going to feel a sharp pain which i did it felt like a huge cramp and it took the breath out of me but that&#039;s the only reason why it hurt that much was because my uterus was tilted other wise it wouldn&#039;t have been that sharp. i laid there for a min and got up i had cramps but the cramps stopped due to me taking ibprofen which helps a lot. i am bleeding which is normal and it&#039;s not heavy if you&#039;ve had a child before and your epidural didn&#039;t help you can handle this pain."
