Only thing my mirena has helped is periods are not so heavy - so can see it would be helpful if heavy periods were your issue.. hasn't helped my pain... am having a hysterectomy soon to sort my adenomyosis... I'm pretty sure it's prob the mirena that's been giving me extremely frequent UTIs

I’ve had mirena since 2016, it is a great choice for BC but in my experience not great for endo treatment. I grew an 8cm chocolate cyst while on mirena and it hasnt stopped most of my pain and bleeding

I got the mirena as well in May. They sedated me while they inserted it so the procedure wasn’t bad, but the next 2 months the pain was horrible. Now I get a little bit of pain relief with it.

YES! The mirena has brought me sanity for the last 4 years. I was bed bound for nearly 2 years before I finally got the mirena. My cervix is like stone though, so insertion was a horrible experience. But worth it. I've had some other health changes that for some reason my symptoms of endo are coming back BUT, I had a 4 year stint of my pain being 100% bareable. My first doctor(who sucked) told me the iud wasn't even an option until she tried a good 10 other things that made me feel worse. My current doctor, who is a specialist, said an IUD is one of the first things she tries with endo because it has a great track record with helping.

Thank you so much! I really appreciate it!
