Mirena problems in my head?
Because the office staff at my OB/GYN told me that the insertion and removal of an IUD was covered but not the actual IUD itself would be covered, I got a mirena put in because my doctor happened to have one on hand that he could give me. I have a history of yeast infections that are related to hormones, however, he said that the mirena only releases progestrin(?) and i shouldnt have a problem.
I have had it in for a week, and I cant eat a meal without feeling bloated or having my back hurt. I havent been sleeping well at all. To top it all off, I am pretty convinced the mirena gave me the yeast infection, which i have right now on top of my period. I want to get it removed, but both doctors i saw said that they recommend leaving it in because this could be a one time thing and because they have never heard of anyone having problems with the mirena. One said that I should be patient, he thinks it will pay off.
I really want it removed! The only reason i hesitated was because i was informed that the more your take out an iud or put one in, you increase your risk of PID or perforation. I dont know what to do. Originally i was on the paraguard, which worked very well, but it fell out of place and i had to have it replaced. I would’ve gotten another one if i had known that my insurance company had covered it. Needless to say, as soon as this whole fiasco gets straightened out, I am looking for a new OB.
What should i do? Get it removed anyway? The doctor i saw yesterday said i should keep it to see if i get another yeast infection, and if i do THEN take it out…is it me or is that unreasonable???
