"all these awful reviews. i thought i&#039;d share my positive experience. after lots of reading i decided to go with the mirena iud. i was two months post baby when i hard it inserted, for me i felt the speculum was more uncomfortable (10 weeks post baby) then the actual insertion. i didn&#039;t have any dizziness, i bleed for a couple days (but it was no more then a period), i also didn&#039;t need to take any pain meds, i have no weight gain or change in my skin. since my period hadn&#039;t come back at that point i only had the couple days of bleeding. i&#039;m 2 years into having my iud and i haven&#039;t had a period to date. i still feel like i get pms from time to time and i&#039;ve have had some lite bleeding on occasion. but it&#039;s been a great form of birth control."
