    how did you go at the DR's, hope everything went well

    i was reading a few days ago that the merina is less effective when taking antibiotics, as soon as i read that i ran out to get pregnancy tests lol



    i had the merina inserted on the 18th August 2008 and they say to try and wait for 6 months so your body gets use to it, and my body is getting worse with the side effects, so i think i will be getting mine out

    I'm not preggas & my GP has assured me that none of my symptoms are from the Mirena (she too has one in). She said the amount of hormone released is the smallest amount compared to anything else, it's just a hint of a hormone & the only reason it was put in there was to try to prevent the hemorrhaging/heavy bleeding for those who do when they have IUD's, the hormones have nothing to do with making the product actually work conception-wise. So I'm keeping it in.

    Bubble sensations are from bowels & I need to eat more fiber & she's sent many women to gynaes with bloating issues & they've all been told the same thing by the gynaes.
