Mirena BC?

[mummainoz]

Hello, just looking for some feedback on the Mirena (I think that's how its spelt) contraceptive for after baby is born. Thanks!

The paragard didn't change my flow at all. I still had regular cycles

It's only good for 5 years. After 5 years you have to get it removed and put in a new one.

Ooh that's good to know Chima7. How do you know when they expire?

[Chima7]

I've had Mirena for over a year and I've had no problems. No side effects. I love it. The non hormonal one causes heavy periods and heavy cramps. Mirena took care of my heavy bleeding problems. This is my second one and when it expires I'm getting another one.

Thanks ladies, will look into paraguard as well.

I had the paragard I chose it over the mirena because it is non-hormonal.  No complaints

Thanks for replying 85mumtobe, no period is a bonus!

I had the mirena for 4 years before trying to conceive this little one. I loved it and will certanly get it back soon as i can. I didnt get any nasty side effects which i have done with the pill. Also no period which was fab!
