Hello. After lurking on Mumsnet for nearly two years, I have decided to at last post a message. I just hope that this is not something that has already been discussed - I have checked the Mirena threads, but can't find anything about possible weight gain.
I have recently been told by my doctor that I have to stop taking the pill because my migraines are getting worse. So I have made an appointment to have a Mirena coil. But on searching the Internet yesterday I found a lot of American sites mentioning weight gain as a problem with the Mirena. Is that anyone's experience?
To be frank, it has taken me two years to get within one and a half pounds of my goal weight at WW and the idea of it all pouring back on horrifies me.
Thanks.
