Hi I’ve had the Mirena in since March 2018. I had the usual spotting then light periods since. But what I have noticed is I’m so much angrier and intolerant (especially towards my own family) I get anxiety when my period finishes for a good while and depressive bouts. I do have days where I feel completely normal too. But I don’t feel any ‘lightness’ anymore and feel like I’ve had a personality transplant!
Any experiences with this? I’ve never been on the mini pill but did have the combined pill for years and years before my first child. I did have bouts of depressive feelings etc on that and remember a realisation that I wasn’t crying as much when I came off it.
I’m scared of having it removed to see as I’m prone to hormonal upheaval having had PND twice, in case I crashed afterwards from the lack of progesterone. But would the coil be doing anything positive in that sense anyway?!
Does it take long to balance out afterwards?
Thanks all x
