Hi hun, I had a mirena back in 2007 after a lap. It had a great result for about 2 cycles but had crazy back pain. Then the periods started again. Worse than ever. After a battle with my consultant I had it removed (I found it hurt like hell having it out). Back to tri cycling my pill which works better.

Hope your feeling better soon x
