"i am a 29 year old mother of two beautiful boys. i am pretty sure i am not wanting to have any more children. five years ago i decided to do the mirena, the insertion process was a little painful, very little spotting the first couple of weeks, then no periods at all. i love the mirena, i have had no more acne then i had before the mirena, gained no weight, and only on occasion have slight bloating and cramps. just yesterday since my five years were up in may, i had my second mirena put in. i love this product, i have had no problems with it, and i do recommend it to friends and family. it is nice to have peace of mind and not worry about remembering to take a pill. there is no other form of contraception i would use again."
