I had my mirena put in about 3 months ago. About a month later I started noticing hair loss; not to mention lower back pain, acne (mostly on my back, nose), abdominal pain, feeling tired, headaches, & depression. I have been dieting and exercising (extensively) for about 4 months now and have not lost a pound. The hair loss has really gotten out of control so I decided to check with a pharmacist and she suggested that I take Biotin 1000 and Womens One a Day every day. That same night I started googleing "Hair Loss", "Hair Loss Vitamins" and then I thought why not google "Mirena-Hair Loss". I am so happy that I was directed to this website. I was shocked to see how many woman are having the same symptoms I have. What I find most upsetting is that none of these side effects are mentioned on their website nor by the doctor. I already made an appointment to get this "horrible" thing out. Does anyone know if it hurts when it's removed?

I had teh Mirena inserted in February 2009. The last two months I have had BAD back pains, hair loss,hair loss,hot flashes and headaches like crazy!! At first I thought something was wrong with me other than side effects from the Mirena but when I found this website and read the comments..... I ALMOST LOST IT! I will definitely be having this removed! I can't take it!! Not only that I bleed at any given time of the month sometimes light sometimes not!! Now I'm scared they won't be able to find it! The first couple of months I didn't see or remember any side effects but now they are definitely there!!!
