I am so glad I found this site. i had the mirena inserted in march of this year. i am having horrible side effects with the mirena. because of this iud my relationship with my amazing boyfriend is completely falling apart. I am angered by him for no reason at all. I make assumptions towards him all the time. I started to realize that i was going crazy when he surprised me with an amazing new car, and all i could do was complain, and treat him like crap. i feel lousy for the way i have been treating him. I have felt that he is the one to blame. I now realize it is the mirena that is making me paranoid, and mean. I am going through a horrible depression, when actually I am a very happy upbeat person. I am tired all the time. I am moody, and I explode a rage of anger on people all the time, from my mother to my coworkers, and my boyfriend. Right now i feel so guilty for not realizing that i have been the problem all along. I also have bad memory loss. which is very unusual for me. I am known for my great memory. My school work suffered because i was sleeping through homework assignments, and class. i am bloated, and swollen every day. I am also gaining alot of weight. at first i was using diet and exercise, but with no results, and weight gain during the diets, I have given up and have been giving into my cravings. for the past month i have thought i was pregnant due to tummy flutters, lack of bleeding, crying a lot, and cravings. after taking a pregnancy test that came out negative i decided to do some research, and found this site. I also have headache, swollen throat, and vomiting. I am a very healthy person so this is also unusual. i am getting acne which has never been a problem, and am also getting back pain. I am calling my doctor in the morning to get this thing removed asap. i can not take these side effects any longer. i just hope that I have not lost my soul mate due to this stupid iud. does anyone know how long it takes for these side effects to stop after removal of mirena? I really just want to be my normal happy self again.

OMG! My husband and I (we have been married 6 years) have been fighting for the past year, and I had no idea that Mirena could do this. We are practically ready to get a divorce! :( Have you had any sexual side effects with Mirena? I am completely not interested in sex at all, and I am wondering if anyone else feels the same?
