Re: Mirena, yes or no?

I think that we can all agree that the majority of us on this forum are the ones that suffer from the negative side effects of mirena.
I chose mirena because I have had negative reactions to the pill. My periods got worse while I was on it. I ended up in the ER after one month of being on yasmin.
The convenience of Mirena sounded great.
However I had 2.5 years of pure torture. I kept mine in for that long because I kept hoping it would get better.
One thing that I didnt know, until this forum (thank you ladies), is that Mirena is made by the same company that makes Depo.
I dont want to scare you off. I know many people who have mirena and have had NO side effects at all. No weight gain, periods, mood swings or anything.
And really you arent going to know how you are going to react to it unless you try it.
Maybe talk with you Dr some more. Let s/he know what your past is with other BC. And be sure to ask if they will take it out at your request. Some ppl on here say that their Drs wont take it out.
GOOD LUCK!
