i must add, i have since lost 14 pounds in the last two weeks
Thank you doctor
Is it possible that I was hypothyroid when I had the mirena in and my hyperthyroidism is a rebound affect to removing it? I had gained 6 kilos while on it and couldnt loose weight.
Hi there,
The Mirena intrauterine device has been linked responsible for hypothyroidism, or a sluggish thyroid, that can lead to fatigue and weight gain by few women. Hypothyroidism is not listed as a side effect associated with Mirena and hormonal birth control methods typically do not affect the thyroid. It is best to consult a doctor and discuss your concerns. I sincerely hope it helps.
Best wishes and regards!
