Best BC by far out of all the ones I've tried was my partner getting a vasectomy.4

My Mirena gives me epic, pregnancy-level food cravings that are hard to resist. Every month it gets a tinier bit better.0

I had the mirena for 5 years,
It neither made me gain or lose and while I did secretly hope I’d lose weight on its removal alas no scales stayed the same
I have felt healthier generally in my body since it was removed but my pmt has come back and is horrid so it’s all pros and cons0 -
I think Mirena helped me lose weight. I don’t get crazy PMS cravings like I used to.0

I thought Mirena wasn’t eostrogen based and therefore shouldn’t have an adverse (or beneficial) effect on weight gain. But I guess there’s always the possibility of an outlier effect.0

I had a Mirena before I lost weight. I had a Mirena during the 2.5 years in which I lost 100 pounds. I have had a Mirena while in maintenance over the past year.
I lost weight by being in a calorie deficit and I maintain my weight by balancing my calories eaten with my calories burned. The Mirena did not affect that process.0 -
