birth control
"In theory, it would have been the perfect contraceptive, but I'm scheduling an appointment to take it out because of rapid weight gain.



With the IUD, my periods have been easy to manage, and far in between each other (about 2-3 months). It would last about 3 days, but the flow was very light. Pink on the toilet paper, like spotting. 



BEFORE Mirena, my highest recorded weight was 170 lbs. I ate junk all day and never exercised. After I began working out and eating clean, I dropped down to a stable 130 lbs. AFTER Mirena, noticed a slight weight gain, and almost 2 years later, I now weigh 190 lbs!!! I'm running miles every day, eating well and I'm STILL gaining weight.



I need it out immediately! It's ruining my self esteem and body image!"
