Comparing Liletta vs Mirena

For Birth Control Got liletta on 10/13/16 and so far so good. Before it I couldn't have sex without pain and now my sex life has never been better. I had cramping the day I got it but it was gone the next morning. I did also have spotting the day of and that has gone as well. I will update in a couple of weeks but so far so good.

For Birth Control Got my Liletta at Planned Parenthood in early December 2016. I'm 22, never been pregnant or had a pap before. My doctors were very nice and the procedure wasn't that bad. They even gave me a heat pack to put on my tummy. It was uncomfortable and the insertion felt like a really bad cramp for a second or two but nothing I couldn't handle. Afterward, I bled constantly for 30+ days, heavy at first but then a medium-light flow. After that I didn't get my period for about 3 months. Then it returned but it's now VERY light but WAY longer, about 10-14 days when it used to be 5-7. During my periods I now don't have cramps, but a couple of days before I get horribly painful random cramps that last 10-60ish seconds. Still not Prego though.

For Birth Control Ladies!!! Do yourself a favor and stop reading these. Everybody is different and we all have different insertion experiences. I just got mirena inserted this morning. I am 24 years old and I've never had a baby. I was extremely nervous, as this was my second attempt at inserting mirena. I went last week and my cervix was too tight so they sent me home with a prescription that was to be put in my vagina the next week before I go in again. The second time (this morning) was a lot easier. Yes, it does hurt a bit but nothing I couldn't handle. Honestly the worst part for me was the cramps afterwards. I had bad cramps for about 5 minutes and ended up throwing up. After that I felt much better.

For Birth Control I got the mirena as for me it sounded like the best option, not having to worry about it for 5 years and it has less hormones than the pill. Before I went in I had 2 ibuprofen and an oxy. I got it in just as my period was ending as the cervix is generally a bit more dilated and to minimise bleeding. For background I am 21 with no kids. The procedure was fairly painless and just felt some slight cramping as the doctor put it in the cervix. The day I got it in (Monday) I couldn't get out of bed for around 5 hours after as it was just serious cramping which is normal and is your body adjusting, Day two was normal period like cramps and slight discharge. Day three (Today) no cramping and no discharge and feeling great. Don't be discouraged by one persons negative experience always try it out for yourself, you may love it and its not really a big deal to get it taken out if you don't.
