[quote=Anonymous]I hated the Mirena. When I hit my mid-late 40's my periods became so painful I had to take off work(and I work at home) and Advil wasn't touching the pain unless I took more than the recommended dosage. My doctor recommended the Mirena. I had it for about 5 years and I never stopped bleeding on it. On the plus side, there was no more pain but it felt like I was always spotting everywhere. It sucked. I got it out last June. I'm 55 now and menopausal. Because of the Mirena I wasn't sure if my periods actually stopped. I just got a period that lasted about a week. It was different than my periods of yesteryear, but it was a period. I guess I'm not fully done yet. I am on HRT that has helped with other symptoms. I didn't really have the hot flashes. I had the brain fog and the unexplicable rage that came out of nowhere. HRT helped with both of those symptoms.[/quote]
