"i love mirena. i had it put in about a month or so ago and i have not had any problems with it. there has been some mild spotting maybe 2 times a week and only in the morning and it only lasts for about an hour. i have an increased libido, and it is nice to not have to remember to take a pill every single night. i work at an obgyn clinic as a medical assistant and i would say that it is one of our top birth controls prescribed. we put a mirena in our patients at least 2 times a week. i love it. it is amazing."
