Help me! I have stopped taking Yasmin for about 4 or 5 months because my husband and I want to conceive. I AM STARTING TO LOSE MY HAIR! I am so worried about this as I am losing at least double the normal amount everyday and this has been happening for about a week now. I have noticed the difference as my hair is not very thick. My husband has noticed. My friend says she can't tell, but if you look in my bathroom and my comb you would think I was undertaking radiotherapy. I went to my doctor two days ago and she thinks it could be thyroid or iron problems. She thinks it could be ceasing the pill but is unsure......PLEASE, is there ANYONE who has experienced this? And if so will it stop? I am so distressed about it.

Hey Everyone...
I was really just reading... but it's all just to familiar. And now I'm questioning some things I thought were just stress or whatever.
Headaches, always tired no matter what... pain.... crazy crying episodes...
I know everyone has mentioned headaches... but is it in a certain spot or go into the ears ever? I had sever headaches for like two weeks and they would always be around the back of my head and in my ear. And reading all of this, I just realized that it started a couple days after getting the mirena put in... And although my ears have stopped hurting I still get headaches at least once a day.
Has anyone just felt achy too? Like I've got the always tired feeling and EVERYTHING hurts. But I am always achy on top of it... Like my body just went through a rigorous workout or I just got over the flu... only neither has happened.
And I know what you mean about sex drives! I haven't always had the best sex drive, but it was certainly a lot larger than it has been in the last month. (I got mirena put in just over a month ago) The sex drive thing just seems to get worse. Is it just not there for you guys or do you have the feeling but go dry anyway? That's what I keep doing. I want my husband so bad, but right in the middle of everything I'll go completely dry... And then of course he'll freak like it's his fault or like he really thinks I'm not interested.... And if we do manage to get further it hurts so bad I'm almost in tears... but I can't bare to tell him because the lights are out and I just want him to be able to finish and have faith in me again.
I thought mirena would be great because I have two kids already and would be scared to death about getting pregnant again throughout having sex instead of enjoying it. Now I'd do just about to be able to share that special time with my husband again.
When I was pregnant with my daughter I would cry over anything. From an argument with my husband to the sappiest of sappy movie scenes.... When I'm not pregnant I rarely cry. For the last week or so I've had tears welling up a couple times. It's driving me nuts. I don't think that I act much different other than that though... And no one has really noticed that I know of.
Are these like the symptoms you ladies are experiencing?
