I had my mirena fitted Jan 07 and within 2 months my sex drive went to zero, constipation just before when my period was 'meant' to begin, last six months the bleeding has returned as normal, and the itchy skin drives me insane, plus my moods can get out of control, huge spots that last about a month, back ache, weight gain that cannot be shifted, I go to the gym twice and week and swimming twice a week but nothing, best contraceptive ever as you don't want anyone near you and your partner will probably be horrified by you anyway!! Today I went and got it removed (happy days!!), whilst there also discovered huge fibroid, just gets better, not. So now waiting and hoping that all these symptoms go and that my life may return to some sort of normality and if you try telling the doctors your opinion they just dismiss your concerns. Was thinking about having the injection but now not so sure if it works in the same way. My advice is don't do it and if you do, take note of what folk have written here so you know what to look out for.
