Well, it's been 2 weeks since I had the Mirena removed. I am sooooo glad I did. My side effects, as I had posted a couple weeks ago included, constant spotting, moodiness, head fog, dizziness and (the worst one) 25 pounds of weight gain. All of these things have cleared up except the weight gain, but even that is getting better. I have lost about 10 of those pounds already and feel much less bloated. My doctor also tried to urge me to give it more time and insisted that my symptoms had nothing to do with the mirena. Well, if that were true, I would still have them, but I don't. Doctors should just accept the fact that Mirena isn't for everyone. I was also under the impression that you wouldn't even conceive while using the Mirena. Well, now I find out that that isn't necessarily true, that some women do conceive and then miscarry. Well, that isn't what I wanted in birth control. I want to prevent pregnancy not expel it. Well, I have a few years and then menopause will set in, that will be good enough.
