@andgee24 Well, my personal experience has been awesome. I had occasional period bleeding for 6-7 months after and after that just spotting every now and then. I haven't had a real period in over a year. No weight gain either.
@andgee24 I have Mirena, not the copper. Yes, your partner can feel the strings but just have the doctor cut the strings. You really don't need the strings. I had mine cut.
@andgee24 The strings are to check placement but the doctor will check placement after about 6 weeks and they don't need the strings for that. The strings are like wires and can poke the tip of the penis.

It doesn't hurt. The same feeling as just getting a pap smear done.

@lovelily I'm scared from all the stories I've heard about it.

@lovelily Do you have the copper one?? And I have questions about the string part. I've heard your partner can feel it? Is that true??

@lovelily i thought the string was so they could take it out?? Is it uncomfortable for them?

@spookylyn I'm hoping I have a good experience like this. I've heard so many scary stories about it. But I know everyone is different.
