"Mirena is effective immediately if inserted within seven days after the start of your period. If you have Mirena inserted at any other time during your menstrual cycle, use another method of birth control if you have vaginal intercourse during the first week after insertion. Protection will begin after seven days."

It's actually the most effective reversible form of birth control, but some women can't tolerate it. Mirena can cause weight gain, moodiness, and loss of interest in sex. On the flip side, it can make your period go away. Good luck!
I think you are supposed to use a back up method for 2 weeks. Wouldn't hurt to be careful anyway. FYI you might want to research online because there is alot of unwanted pregnancies associated with use of Mirena.
use rubber for around 2 weeks and when you have had your check up you should be ok after that. and you might not get you monthlys with the Mirena .
