Mirena - the new IUD

Any of you have or know someone with experience with it?  I am pretty well versed in birth control methods, but just wanted hear some real women feedback.

    Blessing for some, hell for others. Not good for those with pre-existing pelvis pain, and its very expensive. Double check with your insurance to see if they'll cover it :)

    I know tons of women who are happy with it. If you have never had children they probably will not place it. I also would not get it if you have not had children since there can be cervical complications with future pregnancies. Also if you've had children it is less painful to place if you have it placed at a 6 week postpartum visit since you are slightly dilated. Hope this helps.
