Re: Breastfeeding after Mirena

Wow Karita it's crazy how mirena could cause so much damage even after so long. I'm still breastfeeding my 10 month old and I still deal with many side effects. Before pregnancy, during and after I haven't ever being able to feel symptom free. Now just recently this month I feel a little better than the past few months but I'm not sure what tomorrow will be. I got my first in a very long time menstrual cycle 2 months ago, so I'm not sure if this will help me feel better. Did you start your menstrual cycles while breastfeeding? Do you have the symptoms constantly or during certain days of the month?

Just in case you are interested there is another lady that is seeing my PCP Dr., which likes to work with natural stuff rather than with drugs, and she is doing awesome after she started taking some detox and supplements that he recommended her. He is in Atlanta GA but I heard that he can do a phone consultation and they can ship the products to you. I can't do the detox just yet because he said it's not safe while breastfeeding, but he recommended some natural supplements and that could be also why I'm doing slightly better. Let me know if you need their info if you are interested.

Thank you for the update too.
