I am 22 years old and I got the Mirena April of 2008. I got it put in because I have a blood clotting disorder and this was the only option of birth control that was safe. I don't have any kids. When I first got it put in it was the most horrible pain I have EVER experienced in my life. I bled for a couple months on and off but it was just spotting. I still have my period but its way lighter! I LOVE THE MIRENA! Ive had some side effects but not to the extreme you ladies are saying. I was on the pill for 4 years and I have the same side effects as i did on the pill.. The only thing that I dislike about the mirena is the bad ODOR! I don't like it. I feel like I can always smell myself and Its embarrassing! I use summers eve and clean myself out probably more then I should, but I cant help it. Does anyone have any suggestions?
