birth control
"From the other reviews it is clear that the Mirena effects individuals in different ways. My experience of the IUS has been terrible (I had it removed today after a year of having it in). I am a university student & since having the mirena fitted I felt like a different person. My moods had become so unpredictable & my emotions everywhere. I have gained weight and suffered from anxiety and severe panic attacks. I was given a diagnosis of generalised anxiety disorder & prescribed medication for depression however I feel it is all side effects of the coil. The stomach cramps I had during the 'panic attacks' felt like I was being stabbed in the stomach and resulted in vaginal bleeding. I hope now that the coil has been removed this will stop!"
