any one experiencing severe itching to the point they cannot sleep? At first the doctor thought I had a staff infection-i work in sports medicine so their easier to pick up. When I was back two months later after taking my antibiotics he didn't know what was causing it. My husband hasn't caught it either and it's supposed to be highly contagious. I've spent many nights trying to figure out this itching-so bad I can't not scratch. The only thing I can think of is the IUD. Also have gained weight and can't loose it although I have ate and exercised tons better than ever before!

I have legs that itch pretty bad here lately. Don't know if it is related to the Mirena or not, but I have clawed them for the past few days. I put lotion on everyday so it isn't because my legs are dry.

I am having the same problems. Severe itching with welts. I am breastfeeding and have put on 30 lbs since my son was born 7 months ago. I went to a food nutrionist/vitaminist and they said it was the side effects of the hormones from the mirena. I cant bear it so I am taking out and replacing with non-hormone iud asap.
