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'm 20 years old and had my daughter about 8 months ago. I've had the mirena for about 7 months now. Getting it inserted did not hurt at all. At first, I was extremely upset. Hated it. I bled for 4 months. After 2 months I went in to the doctors because I thought something was wrong. Went in, nothing was wrong. They told me to wait it out a little longer. After about 3 months the bleeding slowed down. Became spotting. After 4.5 months, I stopped bleeding. I have no complaints. I'm glad I stuck with it. I've had my period once so far and it was very light. I haven't experienced any acne, mood swings, etc. so far, I'm happy and hope the next 5 years will be a good experience for me.
