Abnormal Uterine Bleeding
"Had my Mirena removed after only 3 months.  Yes, it did significantly reduce monthly bleeding and cramping, but the negative side effects far outweighed the little positive effects.  I am fortunate to live a very good life and have never experienced depression; however during the 3 months I had Mirena I felt very sad and depressed for no reason.  I also had zero sex drive all the time - not just certain times of the month.  Gained 10 pounds in 3 months while exercising vigorously on a regular basis and eating very healthy foods 1500 calories a day.  I know my body very well and I know how to lose weight, but nothing worked this time.  Also experienced tingling in my hands and feet.  Looking forward to getting my life back after Mirena!"
