birth control
"I got my Mirena inserted on Friday (11/18/2011), and so far I love it. The insertion was extremely painful! Really crampy! However, I have never had any kids, and have never been pregnant (I've heard it's easier if you've had children). I got it inserted on the first day of period because it's when the cervix is most open. Since then, I've had mild cramping and a very light period (more like spotting). I usually have heavy periods and pretty mild cramps. Today, I've barely spotted at at all, and the cramps have definitely decreased. So far I'm extremely happy I decided to get the Mirena. I will definitely post an update after I've had the Mirena for a longer period of time, but as of right now, I'm only expecting the best!"
