3 weeks exactly since I had mine removed. Still no weight loss or improvement in acne, but at day 11...I noticed that my joint pain was completely gone and just realized today that I have not had any heartburn in a while. (I had been having severe heartburn on a daily basis for months.) I had a period the 2nd day after having it removed which lasted for about a 5 days and was heavy with clotting. Then I had another period which started last Monday, lasted for five days and was heavy with clotting as well. That 2nd period ended last Friday (May 23) and here it is Tuesday and I've noticed some more spotting as if I'm about to start another one! I started taking vitamins with extra iron to prevent any anemia with the 2nd period...but holy cow! I wasn't expecting a 3rd one within a month! I'm wondering if this might be a reason that my weight is staying on and the acne, too: Maybe I'm staying in a state of PMS with all these periods. I'm hoping this one won't be as heavy as the last 2...but at least I have an appointment scheduled with a new GYN on June 16th.
