Mirena and implanon

I am 24 with 2 children and had mirena inserted in February after going crazy with implanon. I have never really tolerated the pill either and this was the last option. 2 weeks later I was in excruciating pain in my stomach that i could barely look after my kids. My stomach was so distended i looked about 8 months pregnant. After tolerating the pain for a few days i went to my doctor and she sent me for a pelvic ultrasound. they found cysts on each ovary. 1 measured 3 inches in diameter and the other 1 was slightly smaller. Even after they dissolved i was in pain for at least a month afterwards due to my bowels and bladder being pushed around. Since then I have had no problems (touch wood) I have had minor cysts in the past but not to this extent and after doing some research found that mirena caused it. I have opted to leave it in for the time being as i am not having any other side effects that i know of from it. But if I end up getting cysts again I will definitely be getting it taken out.

(continuation ) very frustrating for me, to feel that ur bleeding like all the time, i thought its not gonna stop. My hair was falling so much,(that i can make noodles out of it!!!)

I also have joints pain. I only gained 7-8 kg. during my entire pregnancy. I was 58 kg. losing weight isn't problem for me, one week after my delivery i lost almost all of it, without doing any effort. Yeah of course i cant eat and sleep much, i have to feed my baby,etc.. -that's why i lost right away.

After the mirena--wow! feel like im pregnant again, craving for something..like i wanna eat something salty, something this and that.boom!!! 55 kg!!

Im mirena free for 2 days now , and i feel much better!!! Im having light bleeding after the removal, but its ok, at least i know for sure that im not gonna bleed more that 1 month.

Im back to normal, hehe normal me, happy, and stress free!! I feel great!
Huh so difficult to be a women hehehe- right now i wanna be free from any contraceptives, and let my body rest for a while. Im thinking Implanon, i have few friends using implanon and it works good on them.

But anyway, im happy for those of you who found the right one.

Good luck everyone!

So from my understand most people on this web site have had "pregnant like" feelings. Well isn't this suppose to trick your body into thinking your pregnant?? So wouldn't all these symptoms be somewhat normal?? I'm just trying to do my research on Mirena and Implanon to figure out which type I would like to get. I've heard bad things on both of these, but also good things. Any information of either of these would be helpful.
