watching my weight, seasonally sick, an avid reader, reading non-fiction
I got Mirena in August 08, I had gastric bypass in May 08 and wanted something that was very effective at preventing pregnancy. I thought Mirena was going to be awesome. For me it definatley prevented pregnancy because sex was so painful my hubby and I seldom engaged in it. I had terrible mood swings and althoguh I didn't gain weight, I didn't lose any either despite strict dieting. I had Miren removed recently and it was the best decision I could have made.
