I had mine put in about 6 months ago and have experienced decreased libido, weight gain and mood swings. At first I thought there was something wrong with me but after doing research I am convinced the IUD is causing these issues. My fiance has asked me for a few months now to go to the doctor and get the IUD removed. Ive been hesitant because it is a very easy form of birth control. But the side effects are not worth it. I am going to make an appointment with my doctor to discuss with her if estrogen will help alleviate the problems like one women posted or should I have it removed permanently.
