wow! reading all of the posts on this page really puts a lot in perspective. I had my little girl in July, and had to wait until October to have my mirena inserted. Like a lot of you it was painful. I stayed very dizzy, had to vomit, and had a lot of cramping in my abdomen and legs. I bled for a month and a half straight, very heavily, and then just this month no period no bleeding. Still, I have headaches every day, nausea, rashes, dry skin, cramping, mood swings, stomach pains, and no sex drive. I can not loose a pound of my pregnancy weight, even with a balanced, no sugar, low salt diet. I just maintain my terrible 250 lb. weight. This makes it so hard to work. I can not take oral contraceptives because of the estrogen, and have even had problems with neutrals such as fe's. I want to be on birth control, but I don't know if it is worth years of side effects.
