"i had my mirena inserted last week. an hour before the procedure, i took 800 mg of ibuprofen and experienced just a little pressure during the insertion. i have had two kids though, so that may have helped as well. i bled a little the first day and had mild cramping. since then, i&#039;ve had some spotting, but no other side effects. my partner says he can&#039;t feel it, which i know is a concern for those considering it. i typically suffer from hormonal cystic acne, so i will be curious to see if i see any improvement with my skin while on mirena. i&#039;m very happy so far with it!"
