Usually I lightly turn a little red and then begin tanning pretty fast. I had the IUD inserted last November (approx. four months ago). The last time I "tanned" was about five months ago. This is a new tanning salon I am visiting. I have been there four times already, and I use the same accelerator (Australian Gold) and NOTHING happens!! Could this be because of my Mirena IUD? Or the beds, or even the dry weather? I can usually lay underneath the bed for five minutes my first time around (after I haven't been there a while) and I'm already almost fried!!! (Metaphorically speaking.) Can anyone help who either has an IUD or would know possibly why I'm not tanning or burning??!

I have an IUD as well, however, i don't think this has anything to do with that. If you are anything like me, you'll always have a harder time tanning in the winter. I think that it's because of the dry air, condition of your skin (probably dry), and the less frequent exposure that you are getting yo the "real" sun. Good luck.

I have the same IUD and I believe it has nothing to do with your tanning issue.
