Everyone's posts have really helped me. I got Mirena inserted a year and a half ago right after my son was born. I thought it was the best option of BC because everyone was doing it. and only today I found out about it's symptoms from a friend. I am very moody and mean to my husband and son and I don't even know why. I have had HORRIBLE acne on my back and arms and sometimes my face.. It started out with just really oily skin like i could literally scrape off the oil with my nails and losing wads of hair with every shower. I thought it was my water and I even went out and got a shower head water filter and started using organic shampoo and soaps but the problem never went away it just got worse. I am constantly popping tiny wax balls from under my skin. I have a weird odor that i thought i would always have now because i had a baby or something. Sometimes I have a really thick mucus discharge that i have to pull out with toilet paper. And lastly I can't sleep through the night to save my life unless i take a dose of melatonin. The doctor never told me any of these side effects at least i would have known what was going on. This site and your posts helped me because i thought i was going CRAZY. and i thought that my marriage was just going to have to be the way that it was (unhappy with a side of no libido) because now we have a baby... coincidentally we also have Mirena. I'm getting it out ASAP I'm glad i'm not alone.
