i have had my mirena out for 2 weeks now. i was bleeding heavily for 2 weeks and then it stopped out of the blue. my acne is better and i am slowly loosing wieght with little effort. my sex drive is coming back and i am enjoying a sex life with my hubby unlike before where i dreaded going to bed to only turn him down again. my night sweats are gone along with my cyst issues. my heartburn has lessened and my insomnia has disappeared. i am slowly going back to my normal self. as for my new form of b/c; we are using condoms with spermicide, along with a lot of prayers. there is no way another form of hormones is going into my body again. my yeast culture also came back today and it was shocking to the nurse. now i am on a double dose of pills to get the yeast down. i NEVER had a yeast infection before and can't wait for this to go away and me to be back to normal.

spermicidal condoms are really harmful to most women. about 50% of the population is allergic. using it can cause small tears in the vaginal lining (making you more prone to std's) as well as infections such as the yeast that you are complaining about. i hate to be the bearer of bad news but you might want to just try using condoms alone. brands from japan like kimono and crown use a higher quality latex then trojan brand which provides for more protection. they are higher quality because for a very long time the only form of protection in japan was the condom, therefore they had to craft a safe one. dont believe everything you see on television, trojan is well known because of their commercials not their quality. and a plus is kimono and crowns are more sensitive while being protective so both you and your partner will feel more! if you are using a condom correctly you have nothing to worry about !
