IUD a good birth control?
This is my first pregnancy and I don't wanna b like those girls who have two or three kids before the age of 23 so I was thinking of getting the IUD.... does it cause complication? Or heavy bleeding?

Mirena has a class action suit against them, yes there can be complications with it. I personally had one imbed in my uterous thankfully I didn't need surgery, but I also had a miscarriage 6 months after removal, which I contribute to the mirena and it took another 18 months to get pregnant again. And I have never had any problems getting pregnant.
I have the mirena an I like it sometimes. but sometimes I feel like i'm pregnant constantly. its ups and downs. I also know a lot of people that have gain weight (including myself) and as soon they were off of it they lost 20 to 40 lbs. but I think I might be pregnant right now. so if u are a paranoid person I would not recommend it.
I had the paragard copper iud for almost 3 years. I hated it. It gave me irregular and very heavy periods. Not to mention sometimes the cramping from it was so bad I went to the ER thinking something was wrong. As soon as i got it out i was fine again. Everyone's different though so what we tell you can't really help you much because we don't know how it's going to affect you personally. I've known a few women like the ones above that have had major issues with the other iud mirena. Wouldn't recommend that at all.
I had the copper IUD & I loved it. My bleeding wasn't awful & it felt much better than hormones from birth control.. and I got pregnant while on BC, haha. I will be getting the Paraguard back ASAP after baby.
The mirena was great for me I had it in for 6 years hardly any periods which was heavenly. I got it taken out last Sept and now im 13 weeks prego. I recommend It.
I had the mirena, it was terrible! Made me feel pregnant for the 5 months I had it in. Also made me gain weight, dropped 20 lbs in 2 weeks after it was taken out. My friend also had it for a year before it grew through her uterus and they told her she can never have another child now. Wouldn't recommend the mirena....
Its effects are different for everyone just like pregnancies are different for everyone. some r lucky and others arnt
I had a good experience with mirena I had it for 5 years and had no problems at all. I got it removed after 5 years and got pregnant 3 weeks later and am now 30+1 and haven't had any complications! But with any birth control there are side effects. Just talk to your Dr. About which may be best for you.
