made a decision about Mirena

Ladies, I posted last week about Mirena and so far have not heard 1 good thing about it. I see my gyno next month and i need another year of my bc so I am thinking either seasonale or Zovia on a continuous regimin since I have endometriosis. thanks to everyone for advice, I have just not heard anything good at all about the device.

Some women on here have loved their Mirenas - you just don't see them here very much. Particularly with Christmas only in a few days, many women are too busy to visit this board right now.
Most of the women that come to this board come here because they have problems with their birth control. So the success of the Mirena is skewed towards the negatives, rather than the positives. Plus every woman is different. For instance, although I had many issues with Mirena, I have been very sensitive to synthetic hormones with every birth control method I've tried, so my experiences are something you probably shouldn't take into account too much when considering this as a method.
Wanted to chime in and say I LOVE my Mirena! Had it since Feb, and after the first few months "adjusting" to it, it has been great! I have not had a period since August (which is a plus for me) and zero negative side effects.
It's like going to a restaurant and having a good expierence vs. a bad one. Good expierence, you might only tell one person. A bad one and you tell everyone you know!!
