I've had the mirena for going on 10 years now. I had it changed 1 time since the 1st time it was put in & my boyfriend told me recently that he can't keep it up because he's getting poked & it's causing him so much pain. Now during the 10 years ice had this type of birth control this is not the 1st time I've been told that it feels like being poked with needles & the erection completely goes away. My doctor has already trimmed the strings & it's still in the correct place. I told my boyfriend he's not feeling the mirena it's the strings he's feeling. Neither of us want another kid, he has 5 & I have 1, & I'm not wanting to get rid of the mirena. So does anyone have any advice? I don't wanna quit having sex but it's getting to that point & we've only been dating 8 months.
I have the same issues. I get scrapped on the shaft of my penis. My erection goes away very quickly. It depends on the angle
Yes yes I have that happen to me I almost went thru the headboard n later that day I felt sharp pains in my lower stomach the next day I blooded bruised light brown blood super painfully
I have had the Mirena for a little over two years now. My boyfriend complained that it hurt him. I thought it was supposed to be soft...I decided to try and see what it felt like...I was able to finally feel it after squatting low enough so I could reach far enough. It feels like a little wire...not soft at all. I would not like it if I were a man either. Trying to figure out a solution...I enjoy the intercourse...but it is hard to enjoy when my boyfriend isn't enjoying it so much. Thought of actually checking out something like a diaphragm (I know...so old school) or something so he doesn't get poked. I don't want the string cut to short to make removal difficult. Any suggestions?
The point of getting it is to not wear condoms...
I am thinking about the Mirena but after hearing abut the poke....if my man feels it..he wont want sex from me again
MY partner gets a hole pricked in the end of his... prick! Its an actual bleeding hole! My ibgyn is so horrible i cant bear to see her again - dealing with positions to reduce depth...
My girlfriend has had it for 5 months i have felt pain yhe hole time and after giving me a blowjob just now she freaked out cuz i was bleeding, apparently its stabbed small pin holes all throughout the head and it hurtls like hell, going the get checked out today, hate the mirana even more now
We just having the same problem plus she's having cramps and spotting plus legs are sore. I think I've been hitting the strings?. What was your outcome?
That means it moved and you should go to the E.R.
OMG! I have experienced the same. I had my Mirena inserted 2 months ago. The sex is just not the same. It's painful and as soon as I am about to reach an orgasim, the pain strikes. I am so sadden and frustrated.
Same.. my girl got it and i feel it almost everytime i go in but im going to recommend the trimming and see if that helps
You should be waiTing more than 3 days to have sex after insertion! No wonder it hurts for you
thank you for some positive news about the mirena...I'm getting it put in soon and there is so much negative talk about it that I'm worried
