An okay birth control, however the side effects of heavy periods was so not worth it for me My periods lasted 10 to 14 Days it was horrible I would go through a tampon or a sanitary towel every two hours without birth control my period would only last 5 days at the most why should women have their periods doubled it’s so draining so glad this is out my body now never again I only had it in for 18 months I’m planning on coming of birth control all together and going to use the natural cycles method want to be in tune with my own body and hormones.

So far period have been very heavy and more painful than usual, but I’m hoping that this will begin to settle in the next few months. No breath through bleeding and causes no interruptions which is great.

I wish this had worked for me. I'm organising getting it removed now. I LOVED that it's non-hormonal, however, I'm in a lot of pain a lot of the month so it's making my mental health bad because of that. It is exhausting being in pain. If you suffer from bad period cramping - get on Mefenamic Acid. It is AMAZING!!!! This completely sorted the intense period cramps, miracle tablet. If this was the only problem, I'd be keeping it in. However, for me I got insane, extreme bloating and constipation after having it fitted that would leave me in agony every cycle. I also began to have ovulation spotting after having it fitted - not a dealbreaker, just annoying. But I do now get ovulation pain too. With my longer periods, and the ovulation pain, I am in pain for about half the month which just isn't sustainable. The fitting was painful but the clinic where I had it done were amazing - I highly recommend going to a SH clinic rather than a GP. I wish this had worked out for me, I'm going to use condoms for a few months after getting it out to let my body have space to breathe and then re-assess what my best options are.
