Iam a 26 year old wife with 2 kids. I had mirena in since may 2007 2 months after I had my 2nd child. First I had spotting for a while. It seem to be ok. after 6 months until now I feel the following side effects: TIRED, CRYING FOR NO REASON, MOOD SWINGS, GET MAD EASY WITH KIDS AND HUSBAND, CHEST FEELS TIGHT, PANIC LIKE ATTACKS, NERVE PROBLEM, DIZZY, HEADACHE, MENTAL FOG FEELING, CONCENTRATION IS LACKING. my sister had hers put in a little before me and she took hers out about 2 months ago. I am going to take my out also. All hormone birth control is just not natural for our bodies. but at the same time I dont want no more kids but not sure about getting my tubes cut. I dont know what to do. But the SIDE EFFECTS OF MIRENA IS NOT WORTH IT. FOR YOUR SELF AND YOUR LOVE ONES WHO HAVE TO PUT UP WITH THE EMOTIONAL DISTRESS IT CAUSES ON OUR BODIES. IF YOU ARE THINKING ABOUT IT I WOULD SAY DONT GET IT IT IS NOT WORTH IT. THE MIRENA WEBSITE DOESN'T TELL YOU THE WHOLE TRUTH OF SIDE EFFECTS. DOCTORS DONT TELL YOU ABOUT THEM EITHER. THEY JUST WANT THE COMMISSION OFF OF IT. BE YOUR OWN DOCTOR AND TAKE CARE OF YOUR BODY. YOUR BODY TELLS YOU WHEN SOMETHING IS WRONG.

I had mine put in the first week of Sept 07 and removed on Feb 7 of this year. I had all the same side effects as you....all of them very scary, especially the panic attacks, dizziness and mental fog. After 6 weeks I am feeling much better, just waiting for my first post-removal period. I think you are right, putting something like this inside our bodies is just not natural. Too many of us are having problems. Good luck to you.
