"i have had mirana in now for almost 3 years, and will get it removed next week. i have gained almost 50lbs since i have started using this. i have gone through periods of depression and have no energy! i have also had multiple pelvic infections caused by mirena. i am happy that i will soon have this removed and be back to my thin happy self again! oh the only plus about this is that i have not had a period since insertion, but i bled almost every time i had sex."
