Anyone had the mirena iud? What side effects did you have? This is killin me and not sure if I want it anymore! Any…

I hated it. I had horrible cramps, sharps stabbing pains in my vagina, when I was having sex it hurt so bad it felt like sharp needles when he was thrusting. It was awful. I got a lot of infections, my body just didn't accept it very well. And I had it in for a year it was hell

@miniwolfe, omg yeah I have It and it’s been keeping me irritable and bleeding and bad cramps and back pain and swollen legs like wtf i don’t like it. And I can’t find my string. How do I kno if they put it in wrong or if I’m pregnant again or what?

@miniwolfe, @libra2extra92, my experience was horrible. I couldn’t have sex. Everytime I tried having sex it was too painful that I’d cry. It turned out that my iud flipped or something. When I went to remove it they said they couldn’t find the string. And after 3 painful tries of trying to take it out I ended up having to go under so they can dig up in there and find it. I’m so relieved that I don’t have it anymore

@parismommmy, omg smh 🤦‍♀️ during sex my SO claims he can feel it. And when we have intercourse it is sometimes painful and I had him check if he could feel a string and nope and I checked and sure enough I couldn’t either. I jus have really back cramps and back pain as well as off and on bleeding.

@libra2extra92, yeah my husband could feel it too and it was uncomfortable for him as well. I think you should go to the doctor and check if it moved cause you don’t want it to end up somewhere else then you’d have to get surgery

@parismommmy oh ouch. And I remember having sex with it in, damn it hurt I would cry also I hated sex

@libra2extra92 I don't think ur pregnant and have them check for the string the next check up. Or if it's not working for u try a different birth control

@miniwolfe, I stopped having sex till I removed it I couldn’t take the pain

@parismommmy, yes I’m definitely going to go in. Because I’m really worried about it

@miniwolfe, idk what other birth control would be effective for me. I’ve tried all the other ones and had terrible side effects.

My sister has the IUD the one good for 10years and she doesn’t have no problems with it.

Sorry, if I am no help. I am not on any kind of birth control.

@maximusmommy, oh wow really. My cousin has the same one and has a lot of side effects. It jus seems like all bc messes me up so badly.

@libra2extra92

I’m sorry. I hope you find one that will work for you and talk with your

OB/GYN and see what kind of best birth control will work.

Don’t get the DEPO shot!

@maximusmommy, I’ve already had the Depo before and it was terrible! I really don’t like this form of bc neither but yes I definitely will talk to them again.
