Thank God for the internet! I thought I was going crazy! I had my Mirena in for 8 months. My monthlies stopped in Sept. I've been experiencing a lot of hair loss. I thought it was just pregnant hair shedding. Then I noticed a bald spot. I thought it was a scar that I haven't noticed, but I checked on it about a month later and it was dramatically bigger! My beautiful long thick hair is diminishing! My sex drive has decreased. My mood has been negative. I didn't get the three month shot so I wouldn't become depressed. The Mirena is just as bad! My energy is very low, I have anemia. Plus I've been very dizzy. I've gained weight and I can't loss it! I've told my HMO and he doesn't think it's the Mirena. Hello! I have an OB appt. in the morning to get this thing removed. I pray for the best! My three babies and husband need their mother and wife back. From: EFGuardipee29

I am so sorry to hear about your hair. Mine was not that bad but it was bad enough.Start taking your prenatal vitamins again and that should help with your hair. Good luck with getting it taken out. I can already feel the difference and it's been 5 days. Your husband and kids will appreciate it. Also don't let anyone tell you that it wasn't Mirena because it was. Hopefully we can get it removed from the market. It's just to bad for all the women you've suffered.
Good Luck!
