Thanks for the advice. I have not tried the paraguard. not really sure what that is. I can look it up though. I have tried the family planning deal and it did work for me for many years, I just didn't want to take any chances right now while I am in school. Although another baby is not in our near future if it happens we would adapt and it would be happy news but for now we are doing all we can preventing it. My body has always reacted in a weird way to b-control. Someone else said to just give it time, but time is not something extra I have. I have been trying to loose weight for my health and it's caused some tension in my marriage (gaining weight that is) so for this mirena to add weight on to me is not a good thing. I also fell crampy all the time which usually puts me in a bad mood. I just feel that I am not being the person I can be with all my hormones out of wack. This IUC was very expensive and I didn't want to give up on it just yet. I think I am going to try and increase my workouts and maybe that will help.
