Mirena coil giving me rage!

I had the mirena put in just over 2 weeks ago and since then I have cried everyday and feel really low. I already felt a little low before I had it, but now it's even worse, I feel angry and constantly triggered and pissed off daily. My messy house is bothering me, my partner makes me angry most days and is making mess everywhere. I had a baby 5 months ago so I guess I am also hormonal. Will it settle or should I get it taken out?

I gave mine four months and was utterly miserable. I didn't have a five month old baby to deal with too. Had it out and went back to copper. But my sister powered through six tough weeks and was fine. Also didn't have a baby.

It might settle, it might not, personally, I'd weigh up the impact on my other relationships. Good luck

Well- I hated mine. I know lots of women love them though. Mine caused constant and increasing bleeding accompanied by that pre period bloat and ache. Bad enough to be prescribed codeine. Th might well be progesterone intolerant.

I have endometriosis so Dr recommended it, they won't give me the combined pill due to aura migraines. I know it's only been 2 weeks, but I feel like shit and so hard with having to look after a baby. I am bleeding at the moment, but it started when my period was due, its been 5/6 days so far and not getting lighter. I guess I will give it a few more weeks and see if it improves.
