I had my Mirena inserted July 6, 07. Since i have not had any children i was in pain for the first three days after having it inserted (i felt like my insides were being ripped out of me) but that pain has eased since then. I do have occasional cramps and i still spot for a couple days but again i have only had this in for almost two months. To be honest this has been a life saver for me. I had to be taken off of birth control pills because i was at risk for a stroke. I was getting migraines when i was taken off of the pill during the reminder week. Even on the pill i was always hunched over when it came time for my period becuase i was in agonizing pain. I had cramps so bad that 1000 mg would have to be continuously taken just to get the pain numbed just to function at work. With Mirena my life has changed. I am finally getting a sex drive back (which I thought was gone for good), my periods so far have been a blessing because i'm not sick around that time, I haven't gained any weight, my breasts don't swell to a bigger cup size (talk about a natural boob job once a month) but the biggest thing is I haven' t had a migraine since I had it inserted. My boyfriend loves it as much as I do. But i'm just glad to know that the spotting is normal for the first few months. Thanks for all the responses.
