    Default Mirena IUD

    Anyone here use the mirena IUD? I've been thinking of getting one since I am horrible at remembering to take pills, the ring sucks, I had horrid side effects with Depo, and I am allergic to the Patch.
    Currently on some Pills (ortho tir-cyclen), but again, I forget to take them some days. Mirena sounds good 'cause I won't have to worry about remembering to take a pill lol.
    Any experiences, good or bad, with Mirena?

    I have one and I love it. I posted my experiences recently in another thread about the Mirena that shouldn't be too far back.

    Can people feel the strings during sex though?

    ^^ Yes, it is possible to feel the string. My friend had her ob/gyn cut it shorter after insertion.

    I had one, and I LOVED it. Had to remove it when I had a complication with something totally un-related but they needed to get in there.....

    The only thing I didn't like about it was when my hubby, who is bigger than the average bear, would position himself in a funky way and kind of tap it. That wasn't so great. But otherwise it was awesome. Had it in for 6 years. And yah, you can feel the strings, but it's not such a big deal.

    I never had any complaints about him feeling the strings but I've never been with a huge guy since I've had it either so that might make a difference. I know my doctor sort of tucked the strings around in there.

    I'm horrible at taking pills too, you should look into Nuva Ring. it's awesome i love it. keep in mind with iud you need to be super careful with your partner or partners b/c a std can go straight up the copper wire to your reproductive organs doing a lot of damage.
