I have a great friend who after 2 still loves her mirena, and I do believe she IS the majority of users.
I am sorry, but I find what you posted a bit insulting (although-I am totally pmsing right now...). THIS IS A SIDE EFFECT FORUM.
Not all of us are "don't get it". Personally, I think all options of birth control should be available. Mirena is just like all of them-and they all have side effects-except Bayer and our docs dont admit to them. Why????? that is the big question, no????
My beef is that we are CONTINUOUSLY TOLD there are no side effects, and that is a bunch of Bull****!!!!!!!
Many of the women here are trying to figure out how to fix the dammage that mirena caused (to us lowly 10 to 20% of users-and extensive it is...). I think we make great progress here, and I think we really help each other.
You will always be welcome if you have questions. just don't discount what you read. It is real. PLEASE pay attention to your body, and the changes you experience.
Good luck.
