I've had my mirena for about 3 1/2 years, everythings was fine! About 8months ago I've noticed jaw tightness and aching. Went to the drs and they related it to stress. About 2 1/2 months ago my hair started shedding. Again I went to the drs and they related it to stress. I took numerous blood tests and they always come back normal. After researching and coming across blogs similar to these everything makes sense!! It must be the mirena!!! It has to be. There are no other options!!after thinking about it I have had many side affects that I never thought about until reading everyone else's stories!! Headaches, mood swings, bloading, excessive weight gain, tmj, hairloss!! The list goes on!! I have an appointment for Friday to have it removed!! I can't wait!! I want my life back Mirena free!!
