I was sure there was a section for contraception did i dream this? Anyway, I am not the best at remembering my pill and the doc has suggested a Mirena Coil. Has anyone here had/got this and if so, how do you find it? Also, and this is the bit thats worrying me, how much does it hurt when it gets put in (grimace)!!

Have had one since DS was born - didn;t hurt at all really when fitted - took some Neurofen beforehand - and now have about 2 days of spotting - DP said he could feel it so went back and had the strings trimmed a little.

Get PMT but no more than without it, defo less than on the pill and weight is no greater than when on the pill.

All in all the best type of contraception I have ever tried.
