I want to thank all of your ladies posting your Mirena side affects. I am 15 and just had my daughter August 3rd, after her c-section i contracted staph in my uterus, which gave me sepsis and pneumonia, which they said they have never seem before and recommended i get an IUD to prevent having any more children for at least 2 years. After reading about the risk of uterine perforation, i found this site, I cannot believe the number of side effects you can have from the IUD!! I am just shocked. I want to thank all your ladies, I am calling the OB and canceling the Mirena order and just sticking with good, old birth control.

I have never heard of a Dr giving an IUD to someone so young. I can think of his reasons but seriously, the risks don't seem to outweigh the benefits here. Good luck!
