Mirena Sucks.
I do not recommend this form of BC for anyone. ever. i have had my mirena since june08 and yeah i had cramps worse than contraction pains and migranes and being EXTRA moody. pain during and after sex w/bleeding (the bleeding part has stopped by now), Last month i went in to get tested for an STD b/c i was having lots of pain during sex. im clean. BUT they couldn't FIND my mirena. the mirena is "missing" - she said "right now we're going to say you can get pregnant so be careful and use other BC's" ... i told my bf what she said about it missing and he was like "yeah i felt it for MONTHS and then i didnt one day and havent since" (thanks for telling me babe)...so my mirena is missing and so is my period now. *gr* im extremely tired (i get atleast 8 hrs of sleep each night), my nipples are sore (they are the most unsensitive nipples on earth,except when im pregnant), and the "morning sickness" is back. so not excited. im afraid to get my ultrasound done to find my mirena. i don't want to be pregnant again. im not ready for a second baby yet. thus the reason i got my 5 year mirena. Sad

I think I'm pregnant
I had mirena put in in November, as I was told it was the most effictive bc. I had my period November and December normally, and haven't had one since. I was told you can stop getting your period while taking mirena but I thought it took more time. I have never had a child, want one, but not at this time. My fiance and use this as the only form of bc. THe last month or so I've noticed fatigue, abdominal pain, constant nausea, breast tenderness and darkining, and even some vaginal distarge and spotting. I'm extremely nervous and have took a hpt this morning which was negaitive. What do I do??

I am on Mirena and I have been on it for a little over a year now, and I havent had any major problems, I did worry in the beginning that I would get prego, just because I kept thinking thats just my luck lol I would be the only one to get prego on it. But I have read about alot of ppl getting prego on it which surprised me. When I first had it inserted, I bled like on and off for 4 months, which bothered me, it was just a nuisance but then after that I didnt have a period for 3 months which was nice lol when I didnt get it I thought I was prego but to my dismay it was just a side effect of the Mirena. I did hear they if you lose weight that the Mirena will adjust a little and there could be a possibility that you could get prego, which I dont know how true that is I just read that. And I just lost some weight and not pregnant yet haha So...oh and personally I dont know anyone who has gotten prego. But I suppose anything can happen.

In my head?
I had a mirena iud after the birth of my now three year old daughter. Worked great for a year and a half. I had it removed to get pregnant with my now 10 month old son. This time around things are different. I have thought I was pregnant a few times already ( Having every symptom ) all tests were neg. I have me period every 30 days or so and they last about three days. I normally have the symptoms of pregnancy just before I start. The last period I had was so light and only one day. Now I am 2 weeks away from starting and feeling yucky. some light cramping and sharp pain in my breasts every so often. i feel really bloated. Doesn't feel like any of my other pregnancies. Don't know if it is too early or It is all in my head. Any thoughts?

Nervous
So i have an 8 month old son. A spoiled little handful Smile i love being a mom and enjoy him so much but i'm TOTALLY not ready for another for a LONG time. I recently had intercourse with my boyfriend and Mirena is the only thing we were really depending on for birth control. A few days after I started randomly spotting and having sharp pains in my lower abdomen. I'm freaking out honestly and don't know what to think after reading so many negative reviews on this. Any help?

Pregnant?
I got my mirena about sept of 08, lately I have been having some wierd symptoms. I have had abdominal pain like worse than cramps, acid reflex and back paon for the past two weeks. and it is sore down there. I cant even think about sex with it as sore as it is. Iused to be able to feel the strings however, I checked them the other day and I can barely feel them. It used to be like an inch and now its maybe two centimeters. what do you think?

Someone have advice?!?
I'm 22, no kids, and have had the Mirena for almost 2 years now. Not to be too personal, but in the past my boyfriend never ejaculated inside me while having sex - he always pulled out just to be extra safe. But recently, he hasn't been pulling out, and idk if I'm just freaking myself out, but I'm worried I'm pregnant. So, I got on this posting and starting thinking about my Mirena and then went to make sure I could feel the strings and I couldn't anymore! I think I might feel them more inside the cervix and not along the outside like usual. OMG could I be pregnant? Of course it's passed office hours during my freak out so I have to wait until the morning to call my doctor, but does anyone have some advice or words of wisdom? Anything would help!

i've been a bad girl...
i had the mirena put in in january. i have been married for 3 years at the end of this month and have a 14 month old. i have been having an affair for 2 months now and am freaking out. i have had HORRIBLE heartburn for the past week and everyday it has gotten progressively worse. my periods have lasted at least 10 days since i got the mirena but this last one was only about 6 days long and MUCH LIGHTER had tender breasts and achy and tired. my boobs don't hurt anymore but they are spilling out of my bra and will have a pain shoot through them every once in a while. i've been having trouble sleeping, weird cravings, very irritable and also emotionally up and down, incredibly tired and unmotivated which is completely unlike me. i was not having sex with my husband and i think i am pregnant. had a particularly forceful few hours of sex last night and i woke up bleeding. have been cramping and spotting all day. i'm scared to take an hpt, don't know what i'd do with another child. and i am now completely freaking out because i've read on several different forums and so many women say they've gotten pregnant even though they had the mirena. ugh.

Mirena Question
I have had the Mirena going on 11 months and have started having pregnancy symptoms within the past three weeks, such as; craving foods daily; hot flashes; spotting for one day; irritable vaginal problems, and missed period. I have taken an hpt and it was negative, and I assumed it may be too soon to tell. I have called my doctor to schedule a doctor's appointment for tomorrow. I can't believe that I forgot I even had the Mirena until my husband reminded me. He said I am not supposed to get pregnant for 5 years. However we know nothing is 100%, and hat is for you can�t any man stopping it.
