birth control
"If you are thinking of having this fitted then please consider thinking again. I've just got out of hospital after my GP perforated my uterus during fitting 4 days ago. The insertion was excruciating and I'm not exactly soft! Took four attempts to get it in place. One day after insertion I got an episode of trigeminal neuralgia down the right side of my body which i have never experienced in my life. 3 days after that I started with what felt like a kidney stone but after 12 hours in hospital turned out to be perforated uterus on top of a kidney infection. I seriously think all these side effects are related to the mirena coil fitting although I'm sure medical professionals will beg to differ."
