Chemical menopause your thoughts please!!
I had my lap yesterday and the doctor asked me again if I wanted the
Mirena
coil fitted which I said I didn’t. He then said he would start me on a chemical menopause, has anyone had a good experience on this? Would you recommend it? All thoughts good and bad appreciated. Thank you x

Anybody had the Mirena Coil fitted and not bled!?
I had the
mirena
coil fitted on Friday (after already having one laparoscopy for Endo, I am trying this before going forward for my second op!).

Microscopic Endometriosis/Adenomyosis
I was diagnosed with Endo about 7 years ago and nothing has helped (pills,
Mirena
only for a short amount of time, CBD). My symptoms are severe and after an operation with a BSGE Specialist in October, no Endo was found.

Can't feel Mirena strings...
Hi all This sounds ridiculous but I am not sure I have ever been able to feel the strings on my
Mirena
IUS. I've had it just over two months and have thought I could feel them on occasion, but never been certain.

Has anyone been able to opt for surgery/hysterectomy without going down the mirena / hormone route first under 40??
My gyn wants me to try
mirena
but i dont really like the idea, i had a copper coil previously and had constant problems with yeast and urinary infections. Im 35 so they are dismissive of a hysterectomy and urged me to try the
mirena

Bleed with Mirena coil after 3 years
Hi everyone, it’s been a while! I was put on the coil after my second surgery (lucky me I was asleep!) and had my third surgery a year after. Since then I’ve been pretty much pain and bleed free! ... til now. I’m almost at my 3 year mark with the coil (March) and did some research on forums and it seems

Laparoscopy + or - mirena coil!?
Im due to have my diagnostic laparoscopy next week, after 5 years of suffering with lots of emdometriosis symptoms, and my consultant and nurses that I have seen are very keen for me to have the
mirena
coil fitted at the same time.

Adenomyosis found on MRI, mirena recommended? surgery?
The consultant now wants me to try the
mirena
coil. Has anyone tried the coil for endo and adenomyosis and did it work for you? or is it just a temporary solution? I'm not a fan of hormonal contraceptives, have tried the mini pill with no success and more symptoms.

In one word, can you describe what living with endometriosis feels like?
Two laparoscopies and excision of endo, got the
mirena
coil, yet still living with symptoms. I'm interested in telling my story, as its not just my story, its millions of women's stories. So, I'm writing an article that will hopefully get published.

Ovarian cyst rupture on mirena coil...ouch!
As i've been on the
mirena
coil for a year it seems unlikely that I'd develop another one and for it to burst, but that's the only thing I can think of that lines up with all the symptoms? Has anyone had a similar thing, and do you think it's worth checking in with my GP?

May have endometriosis, mirena coil the only thing offered to help!
The treatment option she gave me is the
mirena
coil apparently that’s what they do now to help calm symptoms. I don’t really want to have the coil. I had a bad experience with the mini pill and this coil also uses the progesterone hormone.

What next?
I’ve already got the
mirena
and have tried other hormone treatments. Zoladex was only supposed to give me a break, and I know my doctor said I could go for another 6 months if I chose to do so. But I’m not sure that I do... and then what? What is the next step?

Mirena coil ... keep or remove?
I had a laparoscopy for removal of Stage 4 endo last year in September and the gynaecologist recommended me to get the
Mirena
coil as a way to prevent endo from returning.

Breast pain after mirena insertion
I had a
mirena
coil fitted in May and since then I get extremely painful breasts about twice a month. The pain is very similar to the breast pain from engorgement when breast feeding and my right breast in particular is noticeably swollen. It lasts a few days and then goes?

Surgery advice!
I am also going to get a
Mirena
at the same time as I’ve been diagnosed with adeno already. Do you guys have any advice for what to take, eat and ask? Anything to help healing? A good last meal?

Mirena, hypothyroidism + menopause. Good or bad. Also advice on MSD please.
I am wondering if anybody has any advice re
Mirena
coil, hypothyroidism and menopause? I’ve had four Mirenas since my son was born. Have been told there are links between
Mirena
and thyroid dysfunction.
