Had my Mirena IUD removed
Had it removed 4 weeks ago exactly due to terrible problems from it. I wont post my story unless you want to know. Last week I had pain on my left ovary and today pain on my right. Its almost like a pinching feeling. Leads me to believe it (they) are cysts. When I normally am not on BC I have 28 day cycle. But not sure what to think since just having the IUD removed. Anyone have experience with this ?
i just had my IUD removed this afternoon after 3 yrs of having it. I loved it and hated having it removed. I had been bleeding for 3 weeks and it just kept getting heavier, so I went to the doctor and they checked it, fine, then they did the ultrasound and to my surprise it had flipped and I had to have it removed, that was the cause of my bleeding. I hated having it removed I still had 2 more yrs with it, but it didn't hurt at all a lil' pinching, but nothing like having it put in. Good luck and hope all is well.
I have decided to remove my Mirena after 3years this October, in two weeks. I am sitting at my computer with the air from the computer below my waist blowing the wretched stink that I get the first few days before my period and the last few days after my period. I have had it!!! It is the most nastiest smell. No woman should have to smell like this. I have been to Gyns and they tell me that my tests come back negative.When I am on the MTA bus I am so afraid to get up slow when I sit next to people. I try to get up fast so no one would catch the smell. Someone did yesterday, only if you couldv'e seen her face. I was soooo embarassed. I have been redouching myself with baking powder and water in the am by 10am that horrifying smell reappears. My husband said "Oh I smelled it but I didn't want to say anything". He almost vomited from the odor. My young children walk in the room and say "What is that smell?" Now that I see what happens with some of the womens' mental health, I never even thought that that was the reason I was going crazy. And my husband cheating thing. I didn't even think of why I was thinking of those things. Now I know, this will be a long road for recovery. Hopefully menopause kicks in because I tried every BC on the market except the Ring. He needs a vasectomy because I am tired of this.......!
I am so glad to know that I am not crazy or at least any crazier than I already was...I have had the IUD for a year now and I cannot lose weight no matter what I do, I am always bloated and I have been on sooo many different anti-depressants/anti-anxiety meds that still did not seem to help. I have no sexual interest what-so-ever and when I do I am so dry it just hurts and I lose interest. I have had nothing but stomach problems since about 2 months after having it put in and my doctor told me that if it were the IUD it would have happened much sooner than that. She told me I had Post-Partum and wrote me a prescription for Lexapro. I began gaining weight at a rapid speed, like 2 pounds a week, and I could not lose it for anything. After 6 months of trying to lose weight, eating 1200 calories a day and working out like 6 days a week, I went back to my doctor and was told it must be the Lexapro. Lexapro really worked well on my depression and anxiety but I just could not quit gaining weight, so I decided I didn't want to take it anymore. After 6 months I was off the meds and I still only managed to lose like 10 pounds of the 40 that I had gained. Since then I have been on everything from Prozac to Wellbutrin XL but nothing seems to help!! I have had several issues with ovarian cysts and such bad stomach issues that they thought I had crhones disease. I have been reading all of the different websit blogs regarding other womens issues with the IUD and decided that I am getting this thing out of me. I go to have it removed on September 15th. I can't wait!!!
Hi everyone, just thought i would share my experience. I had the Mirena fitted 11 days ago. I must say being honest it was horrendous. So painful i was climbing the hospital wall. I then had contractional like pains for 2-3 days was in so so so much pain. Went back to docs who gave me stronger pain killers and some anti biotics just incase of infection. The next 3-4 days i generally felt unwell then about 4 days ago i started getting all over body itching to the point it was keeping me awake at night and it was driving me insane. Ended up in A&E yesterday morning having it removed as i was having an allergic reaction to it.
I so so so wanted this to work for me. I have endometriosis, i've had many surgeries, got IBS, im 34, no kids, single, no prospect of that happeneing. I just want a normal life. I want a hyst but they wont give me one.
So now im back to square one.
I'm so sad today, coz i just feel its never gonna end.
Hey ho, just keep plodding on.
Thanks for listening.

I too have had the horrendous journey.
I had the Mirena inserted Dec 08, as soon as it was in I didnt feel myself. trusting in what I was being told by medico that it will take some time to adjust. well i wonder if they want you to have it in for a time so you get so toxic you become punch drunch and neeed a carer 24/7. this is the most belittling experience.
I waited until march for it to settle in , then decided to do my research.
Well I have joined the club, the anti mirena club.
my health mental emotional and physical-are suffering,ARRRRGGG
My Symptoms;I dont feel myself, lethargy, dizzzy, foggy, cannot recall information easily,get confused,have difficulty being interested,eysight is blurry and have use reading glasses all the time,slight hair loss(40%) and oily hair,slight acne,hirsutism has excellerated growth, red spot like burst capillaries on chest and neck,
spasmodic rapid heart rate with panic and paranoia. Dark Dark suicidal, self harm feelings, desparate, helpless, hopeless, feeling dread and dispair,teary over anything,negative monkey mind.
really spaz digestion, all over th place from indigestiongas,pain under ribs.
Bloated, feel puffy even though I havnt gained. I was nauseas from January to march that i lost some weight. I felt I was pregnant had all the symptoms but no. This really tipped me off that the mirena was at the cause of my ailments.
And now I have constant lower back pain , and aching joints, a strange moving sensation in my uterus that feels like a baby moving occasionaly.and a sensation of streching slight burning inside.
and of course just recently NO Love desire.
plus my partner has strange thrush looking chemical burn on the rim of his manhood , which the Dr diagnosed as thrush but has not vanished with abstinence and the cream. It flares up immediately after loving then peels in a spot. we reckon that when we first had the mirena the strings were cut to short and it poked and scratched his willy which allowed the hormones to penetrate under his skin. He is very clean of chemical intake and has been a vegetarian for 40 yrs and luckily has experience as a psych nurse or I would not be here
So I made appointment to get mirena out had to do the waiting game, finally spread on the table and DR says "oh whats this, I cant get to your cervix, Oh its a vaginal cyst, Oh ok , well let me get this IUD out then we will attend the cyst. Oh Oh I cant see any strings sorry we will have to do a D&C "She really has been very supportive and did everything in her power to book me in asap.Had ultrsound which identified IUD in utero and cyst the size of an egg which was not there when I had IUD inserted.
Checked into Hospital, procedure done. IUD,I am waking in recovery to the Dr saying she couldnt find it and how sorry she is,I will have to go to a Gyno as it will require there skill
At my follow up appointment she suggested anti-depressants for which I refused , so it was suggested I take St Johns Wort.After 3 days of St johns I had a hysterical fit ,madness ,crazy fit this night, so insane that I cant believe it was me. Lucky again that my partner was in attendence. this has all put such a strain on our relationship. I researched St johns wort and found on netdoctor that it is not good to take" as these may speed up the breakdown of the levonorgestrel by the body"Yep I had a massive progestin surge and since then Im only focussing on getting through each day till this toxic poisoner is finally extracted from my body.
So here I am waiting for this Friday 19 june 2009 for the next step inthis next round to rid myself of this tyranny.
(did you know that mirena has barium in it, and barium can transmit signal or bounce signals , are we women being used to transmit??did you know they spray the skys globally with chemtrail which contain barium?)
I have changed from being a really healthy women, why did I get the mirena.
Love to you all

Hi, I'm 20 years old and am thinking about getting Mirena. I have had no children, and it seems that many of the "horror stories" that i read are with women who are much older than i am and who have had children. is there anyone out there who is my age and has not had children that has had a good experience with mirena?
