Mirena has been AWESOME for me. Everyone that is looking for the IDEAL birth control needs to consider this! Its the MOST reliable form of BC you can have (besides abstinence), and the side effects are less than any form of BC you can be on. Think about it people, every kind of BC has an effect on your body. This one is a no brainer. You don't have to take it at the same time everyday, you don't have to worry about a patch, you don't have to worry about a ring sitting in your vagina. It can lessen, even STOP you from having periods...it did for me! AWESOME!! I just got mine removed after 2 years, and will definitely get it after we have another baby. I am an OB RN and recommend them to all of my patients!

That's great it's worked well for you, you are lucky. I do hope when you recommend them to patients though you balance your recommendation with a clear warning about the possible very severe side effects and that it does not work out for everyone. I also hope you never give a patient who says they want it out anything but complete support and empathy.

After scanning through these comments, and to have recently had Mirena inserted on 9/15, I am relieved to hear a positive review. I have two questions/concerns: 1) the brown discharge - does it ever stop? and 2) i have NOT had children and was still administered this IUD. Should I be concerned?
