I am new here too. I just had my Mirena removed yesterday & am excited & extremely nervous about the process. I was diagnosed with Adenomyosis in '06 & have unbearable cycles. The only relief that we found for the pain was Mirena & now it's out. I'm hoping to conceive quickly, but am going to try not to stress if it doesn't happen right away. Easier said than done though.
