birth control
"I'm 20 years old and had my daughter about 8 months ago. I've had the mirena for about 7 months now. Getting it inserted did not hurt at all. At first, I was extremely upset. Hated it. I bled for 4 months. After 2 months I went in to the doctors because I thought something was wrong. Went in, nothing was wrong. They told me to wait it out a little longer. After about 3 months the bleeding slowed down. Became spotting. After 4.5 months, I stopped bleeding. I have no complaints. I'm glad I stuck with it. I've had my period once so far and it was very light. I haven't experienced any acne, mood swings, etc. so far, I'm happy and hope the next 5 years will be a good experience for me."
