Mirena coil - acne on neck?

Anyone else had this? I had a coil fitted in the summer for heavy periods. It’s really sorted those out (I still get a period although it’s lighter) but I’ve got horrible cystic pustules and lots of blocked pores on my neck. It’s not bothering me enough to have the coil removed, but has anyone else had this? I do get a few on my cheeks/jawline too but my poor neck is really suffering!

Me too! Although the last 2-3 months I've been intermittent fasting, and on 900-1200 Cal's a day and I notice it's cko where near as bas as before. But yes I'd get loads of jaw line acne in my late thirties usually starting a week or so before when I should get my period but they are deep and last a long time. In fact they just about clear for next lot to start!

I will take that though and the death of my labido for the fact I never get period bleeding (yay!) and I do not want any more kids having had the pill fail me twice.

You can see your dr about it, it’s not good for you to have little infections bubbling away like this.

I got acne after the implant and had treatment for it.
