I got an IUD 3 years ago after my second child since we weren't sure if we wanted to expand our family further.  I chose the Mirena over the copper after reading the side effects, etc and because I like that it was a 5 year IUD and that would be about the time for me to have more kids.  I LOVE it.  I've tried the pill and Depo Provera as well, but love this.  I don't forget to take anything and can be spontaneous.  My best friend and sister in law got them too after hearing about it from me.  I haven't noticed any real side effects (except no period...bummer-not!) and cannot feel it at all, although the doctor did recommend occasionally checking to make sure I can still feel the strings.

I have been taking Lexapro for a few months now. I am a 37 year old female. I have experienced no side effects that I can think of and it seems to be really making a difference in my life in a very positive way. I have been on many different medications of this type and  Lexapro is one of the best. Everyone is different though   and it  will take some time before you really know for sure if Lexapro is a good choice for the patient. \nGood luck.

I've been on it for about 4 months and I love it.  No pain and best of all no PMS symptoms.  Side effects I've had included forgetfullness and diarrea.  Also, a few migraines, but I had those before as well.  I also love not having a period.\n\nI tried Lupron too, but it made me crazy.  Headaches every day and wicked mood swings.
