Mirena - what should I do?

Posted by Jami on 05/12/08 4:56:04 PM

Okay, so I have been bleeding/spotting straight since I had the IUD inserted almost 4 months ago, 8 weeks after my second little girl. I love/loved the thought of not having to deal with a pill, and I have severe Endo - and the cramping has been nothing like what I'm used to. I am losing a lot of hair, but I can chalk that up to post pregnancy. I am not losing weight that I should, but I've always had a slow metabolism. I do have mood swings, but I also was being treated for PPD pre-Mirena. NOW I've had my very first yeast infection EVER, treated that, but becoming itchy AGAIN.
I don't know what to do because I hate this bleeding (I actually bled through my pants at work the other day. It was a mix of blood and some other clear substance??) I was having spontaneous bad 'hemorrhages' for lack of a better term. They gave me a sono to see if it was in my muscle. It wasn't. My midwife told me to hold out, that maybe my body is trying to reject it harder -- and I WANT IT TO WORK!! But .. will the bleeding ever stop, is the hair loss because of post prego, and will I ever lose this weight (I was losing it quickly before I had the IUD inserted)
So there's my rant. I'm not sure what to do, or what to think. Any ideas?
