Marina Coil

[haberlid]

I had the marina coil fitted approx 2 months ago and I am still bleeding, have gained 1/2 stone and feel really emotional. I already have three children and my youngest is 1. I am a nightmare at the moment. I am hardly eating anything because of this weight gain and I just seem to be bigger than ever. Its really getting me down. Has anyone else had similar problems?

not sure about the weight thing.. think mine is due to eating.
I have ahd the bleeding though. but when I went back to fp clinic they said it was an age thing.(I am in my 40's) did give me hormone tablets that sorted it though,
Did see a long thread about this ages ago in health. might be worth asking there

i spotted for about 2-3 months, the weight and the hormones settled down about the same time. Never looked back after that

Good luck.

Thanks,

Perhaps, I will give it another month and see what happens.

My slight weight gain is also entirely due to eating too much and not exercising enough, and otherwise I'm delighted with my mirena.
