I had the Mirena removed 2 months ago. Best thing I ever did. During the 8 months I had it, I was bloated all the time, extemely tired, extreme mood swings, acne, weight gain, was diagnosed with depression and my doctor suggested that I take anti-depressants. I was convinced that the Mirena was cause and insisted that it be removed. My doctor did it reluctantly and I am happy to say that all these symptoms are gone and I've just got to shed the excess pounds. So for those who are experiencing the same symptoms I did, there are other alternatives to birth control. Don't just accept it no matter what your doctor says. You know your body best. And removing it did not hurt.
