birth control
"I chose to get Mirena when my daughter was almost one.  At the time I thought that it was the best contraception method ever.  No pills to remember, rings to change or give me migraines, or patches to remove.  I have tried them all, and with Mirena, I felt like it just simplified my life.  I thought that I had no side effects but now I am not so sure. I did gain about 15 lbs and had some moodiness but I was a student mother and attributed everything to stress.  Lately, I have had anxiety, which I never used to have and begun having panic attacks.  My libido is terrible, to the point that I feel bad for my husband.  I do have quite a bit of stress in my life but I can't help but think of the Mirena."
