Hello all. I want to add to this list of issues that may make you think a little deeper on your decision to keep this evil IUD or not. If you are having any side effects have it removed. Do not listen to your Doc. if you think you are having issues. YOU know yourself better than anyone. 'When in doubt have it out.' I just recently lost my husband because of a heart attack. (he was 45) OMG!!!
I am very grateful that we had 2 months mirena free together. Prior to removal it was hell and I didn't even realize I had become such a BI***!! My hubby mentioned to me 2 weeks before he died how much better our relationship was since removal. (even the sex) I am soooo glad that he had his 'old wife' back and we were VERY happy for the past couple of months. I think this thing stole 6 years of happiness from us and YES I am bitter and feel so stupid that I didn't know. Go to d**********l.org and see what they have to say about hormones. It's amazing. If your relationship is suffering, please take a look at as many posts as you can and know that you came to this forum for a reason. Don't be a victim like me if you can avoid it. It's not worth it. I was recently put on Lexapro for anxiety and it has helped a lot. If it is available to you I would highly recommend it or any other med. that will help with the evil side effects. Good luck to all of you searching for answers. Hope you will make the right choices for your body. Mirena Sucks!!!
