Mirena almost ruined my life. I was terribly depressed and tired and moody. I had no desire for sex and for someone who lost my baby weight right after both of my girls were born, and have never had weight issues, I sure did gain a lot on Mirena. It has been over a year since I had it taken out and I am still trying to get those last few pounds off. I screamed at my husband and kids all the time and it was destroying my marriage. I am glad that my husband is so patient and understanding. He is a physician and he recognized the signs as a side effect from the hormones in the Mirena. He made me make an emergency appt with the GYN and have it taken out immediately. They should really be more honest about this thing and the potential side effects. It could have caused serious trouble for me.
