    I also gained a TON of weight after having my son and getting one in 09. I also found out that in the last year of having it I developed a thyroid issue. Needless to say I yanked that sucker out.. In the last couple of months I have felt better then I have in years!

    I gained on it too. It also made me extremely irritable and unhappy. I got my TOM almost nonstop and my skin was horrible and my hair was thin. They say it has no side effects but I call BS on that one. I only had it in for a year and I couldn't take it anymore.

    I loved mine, and lost a lot of weight while on it. After 3.5 years it started to make me crazy. I had it pulled out and got myself some Xanax. But I wish I could have kept it, was loving not having a period for almost 5 years (counting the time I was preggo).
