"i didn&#039;t get pregnant and insertion wasn&#039;t all that bad. there was spotting the entire 6 months i had it in, but it was tapering off quite a bit toward the end. 

the reason i had to have it removed is because i went almost completly insane. i was depressed, would cry at the drop of a hat, became paranoid of my boyfriend and just very sad/angry in general. i had my gp remove it and now (4 months later) life is back to normal. 

i know some people don&#039;t experience any mood side-effects, but i was one of the few."
