long term is like 2 + yrs. He told me that he doesn't like his patients taking it longer then 2 yrs. He suggested it to me that he would like me to consider the merena at my next visit which would be in jan.
I am aware of the side affects and my obgyn and i both felt it was best for me at this time. I trust his decision and with every birth control their is risks you take unless you choose not to have a sexual relation ever again. I much rather go through the side affects then have another pregnancy.
