I have been losing weight, but from what I have been reading on others forums this is an uncommon side effect, most people are gaining. My appetite is never ferocious no matter how long I go without eating... I use protein shakes and make an effort to put healthy things in my body... it is a little strange, I don't know if the Mirena is causing me to be out of touch with my body, or I'm IN touch with my body and the Mirena has destroyed my appetite.

I have seem a lot of people posting extreme symptoms they have had. I have definitely noticed a decrease of sexual drive-

Other than that, I feel the IUD throbbing quite a bit in my body, no other severe side effects....I just dislike the way it feels, and hope my body will adjust- but if it won't I will- by taking it out.

Yes, coil movement can occur if you lose weight, especially if the coil is part of a medical device like an intrauterine device (IUD). Weight loss can change the positioning of pelvic organs and tissues, potentially affecting the placement of the coil. However, significant movement is not typical, and it’s important to consult a healthcare provider if there are concerns about the coil's position after weight loss.


I had the mirena put in last June and since last September I have lost 35 lbs now my boyfriend and I feel the sex is very discomforting and am wondering if this is common?

If you or your partner are having discomfort during sex and you have the IUD, it makes sense to see your health care provider to make sure the IUD is not coming out. Avoid vaginal sex or use a backup method of birth control until you confirm the IUD's location. Weight loss, however, does not increase the chances of the IUD coming out.

You removed your own paragard IUD Went perfectly except you are now 2 days late Is it at all possible you got pregnant That quick Help?

You should never remove your own IUD. You should seek a doctor immediately to test to see if you are pregnant and have your IUD or a new IUD inserted. Removal of an IUD can almost immediately leave you prone to pregnancy.
