Re: freaking out about mirena

I am so sorry to hear about your problems, I also have had terrible periods since I was young. I took many pills and did not tolerate any. My suggestion is dont get it. It has been a terrible experience for me and I dont want to see anybody else go through the suffering. It is great, it does take your periods away, but it will make you gain weight and feel psycho. You could try it and see as I have some friends that have not had issues, but if you did not tolerate any other pills very likely it will be difficult for you. I am going to have an ablation, but you can not have kids after that and I am 37 and never was able to get pregnant and at this point I have dealt with that and just dont want to suffer anymore. I would contact your Dr and get a list of options because suffering every month is awful as I did it for 20 years. I wish you the best of luck and I will pray for you, but this option does have very big downfalls.
