birth control
"I am a mother of a 4 year old. I have had the Mirena for 4 weeks and today is my 1st check up. I've gained 7 pounds and I'm in the process of losing it. I haven't had my period since getting the Mirena but I have had symptoms as if my period is coming like tenderness of the breast spotting and discharge and cramping but NO PERIOD. So far I love it and recommend it to anyone who does not want kids for the next 5 years or so. "
