Thank you! Mirena is the exact one my doctor friend talks about, though no one in her family use one.
Good to know in advance about the adjustment period being so long, though I hope any issues that come up in this period get addressed adequately for you. There are some local issues with misogyny in healthcare that we would have to plan around for those months.
In our research I'd heard about menstrual cups being problematic for a while, the timeframe seems to vary (probably because of anatomy variation?). I'm just worried about the puncture horror stories, and I have a retroverted uterus which means a non-standard angle, but I guess that means I'll just have to find a combined clinic with ultrasound facilities and doctors willing to push ER admission if things go wrong.
