Has ANYONE noticed a change in bowel movements/bloating since being on the Mirena? Ive had it since August of 2008 and since then I have gained 20 lbs, ALWAYS bloated and my bowel movements have changed in consistency. My doctor has sent me to have blood work, CAT scan of abdomen and a colonoscopy and the results where all negative. At this point I have NO DESIRE to have sex, Im 42 and don't want anymore children and cant take regular birth control due to migraines. But at the end of each day my ankles are swollen and I feel huge?? Anyone with LIKE symptoms?

I have to admit that I noticed a change. My bowel movements were looser & more frequent.

Yes, deff bloating & weight gain. Which was annoying as I managed to get to below my pre-oregnancy weight thru breastfeeding & eating well & now I have put it all again! Not happy!
