I had the IUD inserted September 2021. I am getting it removed this week. This Copper IUD has caused me so many issues including hair loss, fatigue, anxiety more than ever before, so tired I can barely lift anything, depression, mood swings, hopelessness, I can barely get dressed some days. I will never ever recommend this birth control to anyone.
I suffered with severe anxiety, panic attacks (new), depression, weight gain (2 stone) despite eating and exercising the same as before. Metallic taste in my mouth, extremely dry skin, constant UTIs , thrush (new), total change of personality, apathy, tiredness, social withdrawal etc i am now on the road to recovery finding the weight loss slow
Had I known about these side effects I would have NEVER gotten it in the first place, now I tell all my girlfriends to never even consider the IUD.

But, why would I think to look up a page on negatives and side effects when everything the Dr tells you and that you see online tells you how amazing it is?! Then every time you THINK you are having a problem related to it and call a doctor or look online they tell you it’s not and you feel crazy and like it’s in your head?

I am very in tune with my body, and I know without a doubt that this is being caused by the mirena iud I am scheduled to have it removed January 21 and I cannot wait. I do not recommend this iud for anyone. It’s not worth it.
