Mirena coil removed – after effects…? Anyone else?

[freedomtochoose]

Hello there all,
Had a Mirena coil fitted some years ago as after leaving I Had horrendously awful heavy periods.

In recent times I’ve not been happy with it – and actually removed it myself (yes, it is possible as long as you monitor it)…the day before I had an appointment at the STI clinic – as a back up.

The reason I wanted it gone was that I had an unidentifiable rash (which I spoke to the STI clinic about). The ladies there were brilliant, I was prescribed an anti-fungal cream and just to be certain they did a thorough check of everything under the sun. I’ve never had multiple partners so am low risk but was reassured, I get the results in a week.

The thing is, I am feeling more up and down with my moods than usual and I’m sure it is connected with the physical changes with Mirena coil removal.

Just thought I would post that as well as my PTSD it was another thing to do deal with. I’m trying to pat myself on the back for facing it all but feel it is going to take a while for my body to get back to an even keel without the hormones…anyone else with that or different experiences?

It was something I hadn’t factored in before, but now I am trying to eliminate physical causes of changes in my mood so that I can better identify what helps my mood/alleviates my ptsd etc.thanks in advance…

The rash is clearing up now but I’ve never, ever had anything like that before and it really affected my self esteem and sleep…

I am glad you got rid of the coil.
I find it such an unhealthy thing to have in the body.
You could work on your liver to detox your body from excess hormone leftovers, with milk thistle, betaine, chlorella, dandelion.
