I am going to have my Mirena moved tomorrow and I am sooooooooooooo ready to get it out. I have not had a sex drive AT ALL. My period has been on for about 2 months now no-stop with spotting. I got it in Nov of 2007 I was excited b/c I didn't have to pop a pill. But getting the IUD was the worse decision I think I have ever made. I just want to get it out and start bck on bc pills b/c I don't want anything else that has to be inserted in me or anything that I have to insert myself. I have been constantly tired regardless of how many energy drinks I have and despite how many vitamins I take. Please do your research before having the iud placed. My husband is excited that I am getting it out b/c he said maybe he can actually get some loving without me saying "I'm still on my period" lol. It is constant spotting. I have had a million bacteria infections from it. It did work wonders for my menstrual cramps tough. Before the iud my cramps with my cycle were like labor pains but with the iud they were very mild. So I am not looking forward to having severe cramps again but I am excited that maybe I can be horny again.....lol!!!!!!!!! I found this website by doing a google search. I wanted to make sure it wasn't just me having these problems but now I see it's most women who have it inserted. So I am going through with my decision 100%. I will leave a update in a month after I see if things get back to normal.
