I had my marina coil fitted in March, and I have found that my sex drive has become much higher. I am not in a long term relationship but even when I was I wanted sex all the time which is unusal for me. So just wondering if this has been the case with anyone else?

I dont think it was the pregnancy free worries with me, as when I was on the pill my sexdrive was really low...

my sex drive disappeared with the Mirena coil.That's the one downside of it for me.
