Hello all, First of all, I am relieved to hear I am not alone ...

hello,
i believe my BV is from the mirena as well i have had the iud since oct. of 2008 and i have had over 4 BV...other than that i love the mirena well and the cramping but i can deal with that...

I too have sufferred from all of the previously mention symptoms such as nausea, vomitting, over active bladder, menstrual for 13 days and worst of all BV. Which after some research I believe has been misdiagnosed. I researched all of my Vaginal symptoms such as excessive discharge and foul odor and I found that this could be the result of contracting something called " Cervicitis" http://www.emedicinehealth.com/cervicitis/page2_em.htm! However, I've had enough of everything with this Mirena. I am going to have it removed this Thursady and i'm going back to the original IUD the copper T. I used this one prior to the Mirena. It was only removed because I was ready to have another child. The worst thing about this product was a little more cramping and heavier bleeding. Other than that there are NO HORMONES so you remain chemically balanced. FYI, My husband jokingly tells me that he thinks that I'm " bipolar" since I've had all of these current mood swings.....that's how bad these hormones have affected me. So I recommend the Copper T for anyone still interested in this method of birth control. Good luck to you all!
