Hi
I'm so glad I found this forum, I feel like I've been going out of my mind trying to figure out what has been wrong with my body. It would of been 2 years this July that I would of had my Mirena in, I had it removed 3 weeks ago. So glad I did. My symptoms just got worst and worst, I thought I had MS, Cancer, Type 1 Diabetes plus more.
My body just never feels normal no more, I've had panic attacks, heart palpitations, muscle weakness to the point of not being able to walk for up to 10 minutes, neuropathy, sometimes the pain in my hands and feet are out of this world, with burning, pins and needles, throbbing veins etc. I just want this nightmare to be over.
I've gone back on to the pill, I probably should of taken a break from birth control for a while but don't want to risk falling pregnant.
Instead of the usual weight gain most people talk about, I lost 10kg over the course of having Mirena in, people are always going on about my weight loss, to the point it depresses me so bad. I just want to go back to how I used to be before I had this nightmare inserted.
I'm taking magnesium, Vit D, B12 everyday to help with my muscles and sore joints.
Sorry for going on but needed to vent since the Doctors say all my symptoms have nothing to do with the Mirena.
My thyroid is also under active went from 6 to 19 but instead of being overweight, I'm underweight. Hope in time, my body comes correct. :-(
PS I'm 30 years old.

This is a reply to # 2,175,184Wow, you're symptoms are so, so similar similar to the ones I had. I am much better now at 4 1/2 years post removal, but it took me some time, and I still have some lingering symptoms. I'm glad you have it out. May your recovery go smoothly! Don't be alarmed if sometimes things get worse, or if symptoms go away and then pop up again, or if something NEW comes up. This is normal. But overall, over time, you should improve. Good luck!,

You are the first person that I found who have lost weight -like me . I have lost 6 kg . I'm 33 y old , had mirena for 2,5 y , also tyroid problem - hasimoto , symptoms of diabetes , hair loss , terrible anxiety to the point I am seeing psychiatrist for behavioral therapy ( i refuse to take meds ) . What is really helping me is - yoga , acupuncture , vit C to bust progesterone production, fish oil , vit b12 , magnesium , potassium , vitex herbs to stabilize hormons and cycle . I am thinking to get progesterone cream also . I am almost two months post mirena and a lot of bad side effects are gone like foggy thinking or joints pain . But I still have memory lost , occasional Depression and the worst for me the anxiety and panic attacks . Do you take something for your thyroid ?

This is a reply to # 2,176,264Hello. My question for you ladies is when does it get better? My dizzyness and numbness in my hands and feet have gotten worse since I removed the mirena 2 weeks ago. I keep getting pains all over my body and I'm just so sick of this. I have an mri scheduled for this week and it's scaring my to death

This is a reply to # 2,175,184The mirena causes serious damage to the female body, and the only way to get rid of these side effects for good is to remove the mirena and take natural supplements, herbs and foods and consider natural therapies that will eliminate estrogen dominance, help restore the balance of progesterone and estrogen hormones, and detoxify the body from all the toxins present in mirena such as silicone and copper.

Hi I had my mirena removed in Feb and I had it in for over 3 years. I basically had the same symptoms as menopause plus dry brittle hair, Depression and anxiety not to mention no libido. I just got my period after 2 months and it seemed like it came on time like clockwork but this last one I only spotted and got a full period 2 weeks later. Most of the symptoms are mostly gone but I never got my libido back. I'm desperately worried that I never will. I'm only 35 years old and I have no family history of early menopause or anything of that sort. Did anyone have this same issue? And did the libido come back?

This is a reply to # 2,211,999hi 3izdcharm,
Unfortunately i haven't had any luck yet, i have an appointment to see my gyn today to see where my hormone levels are. So far there is only one Dr willing to help but lives in Kansas. He recommends detoxing the body and the use of bio-identical hormones. I don't have the cash to purchase the detox package esp because the shipping rate is ridiculous to mail to Canada.
I'm in search of a Naturopath in my area and see where it goes from there. I'm hoping maybe he/she would have more answers for me. Have you tried any detoxes?- Re: Mirena, the worst thing to ever ... 3izdcharm

This is a reply to # 2,212,048Is the doctor from Kansas, is it Dr. J? Yes, I did do a detox with him, I was desperate with my side effects, they were destroying my life. I removed the Mirena in April of 2012 and did the detox in June of that year. I don't know if it helped me or not, I was really sick for quite a while. It took me about 1 1/2 years after removal to get rid of my most sever symptoms which were intermittent. I have gone to my gyno several times and she has been no help. Please let me know if your Naturopath gives you any good tips.
