"i love my mirena. i&#039;m due in february to take it out because my 5 years are up. it did not bother me at all to get it inserted. it was pretty easy, i had minor cramps after. i got it because i had gotten pregnant at 16 and had my daughter at 17. i got it because i knew my boyfriend and i were not ready for another child. on top of that from the moment i got my period it was hell. i got my period a month after insertion and ever since then it&#039;s been a smooth ride. i haven&#039;t had a period since and definitely have not gotten pregnant again. i guess its true when they say everybody takes differently to it. so come february i plan on getting it again for another 5 years. i&#039;m one happy customer."
