Hi everyone, i'm new here and would like to start with to say thank you to you all. It is only from reading all your posts that i have become more informed about mirena and been able to come to a decision-removal.

I had mirena fitted in october 2009. Within a couple of weeks i started with the symptoms that everyone has described, the depression/mood swings being top of the list. I wasn't happy with not having periods as i was constantly worried that i might be pregnant. My decision for removal as i say was based on info gathered here but also because of the flutterings/movements that i was/am getting in my abdomen. I hate it-i am sitting here feeling a baby moving round in there. The docs did a preg test-negative, but, having had 2 children already and having felt this with them, i am terrified. I don't want to feel like this anymore and wish it would stop. Has anyone else still felt flutterings after removal?

Thanks for everyones help.
