I just had my Mirena removed this afternoon anfter 14 months, and I already feel better! Mine, too, felt like it was coming out. I had almost a pinching sensation, which was very strange. I also would have my period for two weeks on and off and this unbelievable cramping. Let's hope this solves those problems. My doctor put me back on Loestrin 24, which is supposed to give me shorter periods. We'll keep our fngers crossed.
