 Reading tons of horror stories about it is freaking me out a little bit. Anyone out there have good experiences with Mirena?

I've had mine for over a year and the only problem I've had with it is my mood swings..

I have had mine for four years and LOVE it!! Just relax and enjoy not having to take a pill everyday, we also enjoy not having to use condoms and not having to worry about it either. Total relief!!!!

I only had mine  afew months before I was begging to have it taken out. I will not do that again. Good luck with yours though, some people have no problems with it what so ever.

I've had mine almost 3 years. Mood swings, acne, and no period. I'm scheduling to get it out.
