    I'm in my 40's and opted for Mirena because i do not want children. This was a good alternative for i didn't want to get permanently fixed. However after some health problems I've been told to lost some weight. I've been fighting this for well over 4 months and cannot lost weight to save my life. No matter how many calories i count and the amount of exercise, i cannot lose anything. It wasn't until recently that i suspected Mirena, now after reading this thread and some further research i'm thinking Mirena is a good part of the problem. It is really disappointing because i really like it and have no worries. Needless to say, i'm probably going to have it taken out. My health is way more important.

    I had it twice, once after each child. No side effects (besides lighter, shorter period). no issues with weight gain either. To each their own.
