FishingNurse 1,211 Posted September 13, 2011 I had it too, I loved it but after 3 years I lost all sex drive, but bf couldn't handle it. I had it removed and in one month I dropped 13lbs and was the horniest girl alive! Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
wishes 125 Posted September 13, 2011 Love my mirena. It has stopped my period and I don't notice any mood swings or cramping like I used to get before I had it. Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
NewlifC 0 Posted September 13, 2011 What about side effects? I am worried about weight gain and acne. I have been told it is really good, but since I have lost my 72 lbs my husband has been all over me. So I am glad I have a good form of birth control. Just a little worried about side effects.

wishes 125 Posted September 13, 2011 Weight gain should be few and far between with mirena. The medication does not really leave the uterus. Unlike other birth controls, mirena is a localized birth control that does not enter the blood stream. Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
