Weightloss Slow Due To Mirena Iud



Recommended Posts

I just recently had mine replaced and I had to wait a week prior to gettin the new one and I noticed during that week I lost the most weight in one week ever. Now that I have gotten it replaced I noticed that my weightloss has slowed Down. I kno the alternative is pregnancy and that wud cause way more weight gain but I have to say that this is so annoying

I am still pre-op, but I have a mirena IUD also. I will be interested to see how it goes. Thanks for bringing this to my attention

I had my mirena for 2 years, but It was removed about two years ago because i started gaining some weight, and was nearly impossible to lose no matter what super diet I tried. ..... as soon as it was out of my body, the weight started coming off! crazy!

I hadn't thought about this...but you may have a good point! I've had my iud for almost 4 years...and my weight loss has been slow...(about 34 pounds in 2 months). I recently got my period, after going almost 4 years without one! I have no idea what's going on. Maybe my slow weight loss is connected to my mirena.

So many complications due to my Mirena. Weight gain is one. Hopefully it will be out come this Thursday and then onto a tubal.

My doctor told me I have to get an IUD. Weight gain worries me but my biggest concern is having it put in. I'm very big and had a c-section, I read it is harder to insert if a woman hasn't had a vaginal delivery. Anyone have difficulties?

Getting it done was awkward and painful. Not the worst thing ever, but not the highlight in my life either! I was a c-section also. Having trouble getting it removed. Plus I'm dealing with side effects. Tubal, here I come.

That's awesome! I'm glad it is working out so well for you. It just goes to show, we're not cookie cutter ppl. I wish my experience had been better. I know those who love it... LOVE it! :-)

A day at Same Day surgery and I am Mirena free!!! Never again! Now I'm hoping the lbs will come off faster so I can lower my weight/BMI preop.

      I changed my profile image to a molecule of protein. Why? Because I am certain that it saved my life.

      Two years out. Lost 120 , regained 5 lbs. Recently has a bout of Norovirus, lost 7 pounds in two days. Now my stomach feels like it did right after my surgery. Sore, sensitive to even water.  Anyone out there have a similar experience?

      April Surgery
      Am I the only struggling to get weight down. I started with weight of 297 and now im 280 but seem to not lose more weight. My nutrtionist told me not to worry about the pounds because I might still be losing inches. However, I do not really see much of a difference is this happen to any of you, if so any tips?
      Thanks

      Well recovering from gallbladder removal was a lot like recovering from the modified duodenal switch surgery, twice in 4 months yay 🥳😭. I'm having to battle cravings for everything i shouldn't have, on top of trying to figure out what happens after i eat something. Sigh, let me fast forward a couple of months when everyday isn't a constant battle and i can function like a normal person again! 😞
