I have had mirena since July of 2006.. I never thought about the things I was feeling could be related until I just read your blogs! I constantly feel pregnant and I am talking all the symptoms!!! Bloating and stomach pains included! Depression, anxiety, sleepiness here lately, severe back pain, numbness.. I am almost 25 and thought some of these problems were growing pains(I know that probably sounds nuts). Please if anyone has a suggestion as far as what I should do here is my e-mail address ******! I need advice and it looks like the doctor's just want to make a buck!! Thanks, R.

Hey I just wanted to let you know that I have had my mirena in for almost 2 years. I haven't felt like myself since I had my daughter 2 years ago. I have NO sex drive at all, never want to go anywhere, and just tired all the time. I went to the dr thinking there was something majorly wrong with me. Turns out there is something in Mirena called progestrin that releases into your blood stream and 99% of women it has no affect on. The effects are depression like. I told my dr that I love my Mirena but I feel horrible. He prescribed me Zoloft, and I have done a 180. My husband is much happier now. He has noticed a HUGE difference in me. My 2 options with my gyno were take zoloft or get the mirena removed, I really didn't want to get it removed because I am very happy with it. I hope this helps some women that think they are "broke" as I did.
