Mirena Coil
I just wanted to hear peoples experiences, I had the mirena coil pre giving birth and the experience was absolute hell. I was soaking through pads hourly and the cramps were the closest thing I’ve felt to contractions in my life. All I could do was lie in bed and cry, I was on literally the strongest pain killers and after 2 weeks I had to get it taken out.
But now post birth, I’m really struggling with birth control, the bar in my arm is no better periods wise I’m bleeding everyday which has now resulted in me being low iron, also tried to combination pill which made me bleed even more and experience low mood. I’ve booked to get it taken out next week but I’ve also booked to give the mirena another go
I’m genuinely so scared but this is my last chance I’m giving contraception before i go down the route of sterilisation, as I’ve tried every option which to no avail has suited me. With every method I’ve experienced low mood, irregular bleeding, fatigue- I feel like if this doesn’t work out I have to forget the image of having 2 kids and fight my case to get sterilised (I’m 23)
Please give me some hope that this will work out😢
