Hello everyone, Can I ask if anyone with type 1 diabetes has had any adverse effects wtih the Mirena in regards to blood sugar/ insulin? Have just had one inserted a week ago and it is still painful and from reading these posts it is worrying that this pain won't go away.. but am wondering about the effect it has on me as a diabetic - doctors say next to no effect as it is a LOCAL hormone and so not circulating... but from these posts listing nausea, depression and weight gain, these are all side effects of hormones circulating the body.... Any one have any answers in regards to this? Thanks

Hi there.. I am a type 1 diabetic and Mirena didn't cause any problems with my diabetes. I had my Mirena in for 3 years. I did have bleeding off and on for the first 4 months and then I didn't have a period again until I had it removed in August 2009. Good Luck!
