You have got me wondering now Claire too. I had a new coil fitted near end of January and have gone from feeling around 40% to 0% most days . Will follow post with interest 🧐

Morning

I just thought ide give you an update I hade my coil removed about 4 weeks ago and since having it taken out I no longer feel easily irritated or short tempered but full of life and I have actually been able to start to run again hope this is helpful to you and hope you feel better soon to 🙂

I had mine fitted Nov 16, put the fatigue down to the weather and SAD, I started to up my T3 by 5mcg for the week before I was due on which helped. I use PinkPad to remember as I’m period free practically and wouldn’t go back or have it removed.
