Did you gain weight after getting the Mirena placed? Were you able to lose or maintain, or did you find it more difficult to lose weight after using Mirena?
I have heard a lot of stories about women gaining weight and/or not being able to lose, and I'm kind of scared because I worked so hard to lose the baby weight and it would be a shame to gain it back when I could just use Natural Family Planning instead.
So, let me hear your story, good or bad.
THANK YOU!

I have the Mirena. Weight gain was a big concern for me. So far I have maintained my weight which makes me very happy. I love having the Mirena........we were condom users before getting so it is GREAT!! I highly recommend it.

No weightgain here. A very small amount of women do experience weight gain but thats only a 14% of women on Mirena and mostlikely its not related to the Mirena

i lost 10 lbs. after i had my mirena placed, then gradually over 2.5 years gained 5 of them back. not sure it had to do with my mirena but i could not lose weight no matter how i hard i tried. i finally had it removed 9 days ago and have lost 4 pounds.

I only have been given the Mirena the day past to this. My well being care expert suggested the 1st 3-6 months you have gotten mind-blowing bleeding yet after that it will in all threat be very mild or stop altogether. i'm hoping mine stops lol. it relatively is totally a possibility that the Mirena has made your classes stop, and that i does not whinge if I have been you.

I had it for two years before I had a hysterectomy( nothing to do with the Mirena) and I didn't gain weight. I loved it.
