I was wondering who all has had the Mirena IUD and if they had any problems while on it? IF so how long had you had it b4 the symptoms came on? What were the symptoms and how did the doctors catch it and then what happend? Sorry I have been having some problems and I was wondering if I was in a boat alone or not. Thanks!

Depending on your symptoms, an IUD (regardless of brand) might not be right for you. I know that Mirena is supposed to be better than the "traditional" types, but all IUD's carry risk factors.
It is strongly recommended that IUD's not be used by women who have not had a baby, or by women who have had problems with chemical birth control (Pill, patch, shot, etc) because Mirena has hormones embedded in it, which are released directly into the uterus.
My strongest recommendation would be for you to make an appointment with your doctor and discuss all the pros & cons of continuing this method. It may be time to reassess your choices - and the IUD may not be among them. Good luck.

I merely were given the Mirena the former day. My doctor stated the first 3-6 months you've were given abnormal bleeding yet after that it will be very mild or quit altogether. i desire mine stops lol. that's totally plausible that the Mirena has made your classes quit, and that i doesn't ***** if I were you.

I've had mine for 3 years!
The only problems I had was normal. I had spotting the 1st 3 months esp after sex and that was about it other than that Ive been period free. Wat is your problem? I have also read its common to have a foul smell but I haven't encountered that
Well I had problems with hormonal methods of contraceptives and Morena's has given me no side effects like the depo or patch did

I had it put in at my six weeks post partum checkup. My symptoms started right away. I bleed constantly. I mean I never stopped bleeding. It hurt. Three months later I had it removed.
