Having now had the mirena out for almost a year I feel like a dif...

I'm really happy to hear than you are feeling back to normal! Not only because it gives me hope but I'm happy for you as a fellow Mirena victim (haha). how long before you felt completely like yourself again? Was it the 6 months everyone is saying? Did you experience setbacks or slow going during this time? Or was it all so gradual you didn't notice?
Sorry for all the questions. Hope you don't mind answering.

Yes, this gives the rest of us hope!! I am 4 months post removal and feeling much better but hoping for improvement in energy level and libido. Have not had a period since the month before removal, am having hot flashes and my FSH level indicated that I was squarely in menopause (at 43) when prior to Mirena I was having normal cycles. Just repeated my labs yesterday so will know next week where I am and what the plan is. Nice to know that you can really recover from this....many of us here are tracking our "progress" based on what others have experienced. Thanks for sharing with us!!
