Thanks everyone, I'm having abdominal pain and more weakness now. I should have listened to my instincts- hormones cannot be natural, and the same dose for everyone seems strange. I will be getting it removed ASAP, probably today. I can no longer lift my son for the pain. Thankfully my significant other is here and very supportive. You may be interested to know that mirena is heavily promoted to young moms because doctors think we are too irresponsible to remember pills. Paragard was never even mentioned to me by my doctor, but I will do a LOT more research before getting it. Thank you so much, I feel like you saved my life.
