Do you get menstruation related brain fog?
I got the mirena coil fitted to regulate my very heavy periods. But I now find I sometimes have brain fog that makes me feel like someone has literally shaved 30% of my cognitive function off, feel like my memory is worse, etc.
DP thinks it's just because I am doing a very intense course (legal conversion) but I feel different! Some of my friends say that they get 'brain fog' round their periods but I've never had this before. It literally makes me feel like I have cotton wool in my head. I'm 29 and very physically fit, etc etc. What is going on!?
Do any of you get hormonal brain fog and have you found chemical contraceptives have made it better / worse? Have you felt like you've suffered weird mental side-effects from hormonal contraceptives?
Thank you ! ! !
