i've had mine out for almost 3 years now and the hair loss i just could not deal with it any longer. daily before i cooked i would have to change shirts so finally on the 15 of feb i grabbed the sissors. i feel much better now that the brittle hair is gone. its immpossible for the hormones to be just in the uterus if our hair is falling out. i dont care if its a domino effect its still the mirena starting it. for the longest time i thought i was having post partum Depression but my kid was 5 years old lol. im better now.
