Ive had the mirena now 3 years and its been a blessing.
The questions you need to answer b4 considering it are,
Are you in a stable monogamous relationship?
Do you have any children?
Do you really wish to have children in the future or are you indifferent?

The reasons are if you have more than 1 sexual partner you are naturally at a higher risk of infection and if you do get an infection its harder to treat on the IUD

You should have atl;east one child bc you would have a higher rate of expulsion and also a woman who has had at least 1 child has a larger uterus.

You should be indifferent about having children or not want anymore BC you do run a .08% chance of becoming sterile at the time of removal since its yanked out. The pregnancy rate on the IUD has rise up to less than 1 pregnancy per 100 IUD users which is the same percentage of sterilization.

I have mirena but the side effects are similar only thing is it might take up to a year or a lil more for your period to lessen and the cramps to lessen. So expect an increase blood flow and cramping for a min of a year best of luck
ask yuor partners to pull it out before they come and put it in your mouth or chest
