I think that you need to do what is right for you, but if you are feeling unhappy with life and depressed, then I would tell you to have it removed. I had the Mirena taken out this past Thursday, and although was told it could take up to 2 weeks for all the hormone to be completely out of my system, I am slowly feeling changes. Feeling a little happier and not so depressed and from having a 0 sex drive it is now about a 1 or 2 (on scale of 1 -10).
I had read many posts on various boards and it depends on the woman as to how long it takes the sex drive to return after removal. Some had it returned/improved in as little as a week, others months. I think the longest I read was 8 months from one woman who posted.
I think you need to do what is right for you. I understand that it is a marriage, and your husband doesn't want you to have it removed; but he isn't the one with something inside him that is causing him to be something he isn't. To fell bad about himself and depressed etc. Hopefully if you explain everything to him on how you have been feeling he will understand and change his mind. Even if he doesn't, you have to do what is best for YOU!
