I think I know what you're talking about with your hands and feet cracking. I had the Mirena in for 6 months before that symptom started for me.... but for me, it was more a "burning/tingling" sensation in my hands and feet and then it gradually got worse and worse to the point where I was breaking out in a rash and hives all over my body. I got my Mirena removed a week ago, and have already seen the severity of my hives decrease.
This registry is a place to share positive or negative side effects of using Mirena. If you directly experienced a side effect while using Mirena, then we encourage you to enter it here. Please note that entries here are the experiences of individual users, and in no way means that you or anyone else will experience the same side effect, since the same medication affects people in different ways.
