birth control
"I'm 25 years old with no children and I have Mirena. I absolutely love it. The pill gave me acne, weight gain, mood swings and nausea. The Nuvaring gave me blood clots. Mirena has been a dream. Insertion was no worse than a bad period cramp (again, I've never had kids and it didn't hurt that bad) and I spotted for a few days. No biggie. I've had oily skin and acne my whole life but am able to control it. Mirena has made it no worse at all. I work out every day and have even been losing weight. So Mirena has not made me gain weight. I just want to be a positive voice out there for Mirena. Before I got it I read message boards and it almost discouraged me from getting it. Thankfully it didn't because it's been the best birth control ever."
