I have had my Mirena in for about 3 years, and I HATE it!!!! I'm getting it taken out this month. I have sever cramps when I'm supposed to be having my period, and then I have a milky brown discharge for my period. I'm 28 years old and I feel bad for my husband, because I have absolutely NO sex drive at all. I'm always moody, I get so angry I cry. When I met my husband 4 years ago, I was 35lbs lighter, now I have put on the 35lbs almost 40lbs back on. I have pimples that are like mountains and I can't get rid of them. I never want to do anything, but sleep. I sleep all the time, when I'm not a work. I don't have any children and I don't recommend having it put in when you haven't had children. It's a pain that I have never had before. My hands and feet have swelled, so much that I have to buy a size bigger in shoes, and my ring finger has an impression from my wedding ring now.
If you have the Mirena get rid of it!!! It's horrible. I have noticed that I shed a lot more, my hair comes out a lot. I have to just my lint roller on my car seat all the time. My back hurts all of the time, even when my husband has given me a massage, I have tired several medications for back pain and non of them have touched the pain that I'm in all the time.
