Detox and Mirena IUD
Has anyone been on the Mirena IUD while detoxing?
The reason I ask is I am 112 days clean off of Tramadol and had the Mirena IUD put in about 2 months ago. I also just had a baby 5 months ago. I have been blaming my weight gain on my poor diet and my moods/energy level/depression on my detox. I am starting to wonder if my weight gain is related to the IUD. I have been eating pretty healthy the last month and am seeing no weight loss, I actually keep slowly gaining weight. If anyone has any information for me, please let me know. I want to keep the IUD in, but if it's causing me to gain weight and stay moody, then no thank you.

Miderma does have hormones in it. Along with earing healthy, try adding exercise 5 days a week. Having a baby torally changes the body. Sometimes it is hard to maintain what was easy before.
Unless that IUD is infused with hormones, it should not cause any mood swings or weight gain. You named a few good reasons for the weight gain and I am willing to guess it may be a combination of those, or perhaps your hormones are still a little out of whack from the pregnancy. This could be causing the depression and weight gain. So could the detox. You should see you OB or GP for help with an antidepressant possibly. Post partum depression should be ruled out or treated. When the weather turns warmer it will be easier and nicer to get outside and do some exercise. We all have cabin fever! Congrats on your clean time!
