birth control
"I have had the Mirena for 3 years. The doctor recommended the Mirena because I had such bad menstrual cycles. The actual procedure of putting it in was just slightly painful. It will be different for everyone since we are all slightly different. I did suffer some cramping for a few days after and had light spotting for about 2 months. After the spotting I no longer suffered terrible cycles I may spot for a day every 6 months or so. We all have different bodies but for me this works! I am looking forward to another."
