Why is it that my period has gotten worse since i've gotten the mirena (levonorgestrel). plus, i be confined to the bed when its on.

Might not be good : Mirena (levonorgestrel) is not for everybody. Cramps are very frequent. Consider oral contraceptives that are great for cramps. If three little bunnies is enough, conisder a tubal ligation.
