- Shocking side effects of an IUD. We're getting personal and a little TMI today. I had a really HORRIBLE experience with my second IUD and I’m hoping that by sharing my experience it could help those of you in a similar situation. Please don’t ignore your body. Never in a million years could you have told me that birth control could have this kind of impact on my body.
I hope you LIKED this video and SUBSCRIBE to my channel! :)

Thank you for posting this video. It is hard to find information about iuds causing weight gain. Google results say not likely or a low percentage of people gain 5 pounds temporarily. Since getting an iud I’ve gained 18 pounds and I’ve never had issues with weight in my life. I think I am going to get it removed and see what happens. 🙂
You are very welcome, I'm glad you found it helpful. I made the video for the reasons you are stating - there really isn't a ton of info out there talking about significant weight gain with an IUD. It was so very frustrating. Hope everything works out for you! Sending positive vibes!
Omg I gained 30lbs but my diet was the same as always and I actually took it as far as doing cardio & the gym 5+ days a week. The weight gain just wouldn’t stop. Now I am struggling with self esteem issues and stretch marks.
ugh, I'm so sorry. I was the same- working out like CRAZY and nothing would work. It was so defeating. :( Sending some positive vibes your way! @@Sweetnopalito
I had mine for 5 years and it’s time to get a new one this month. I noticed the closer it got to the 5 year mark, my cycles returned and I started losing weight. Which led me to believe it wasn’t as effective because I gained weight while having it. Hopefully the new one I get, it doesn’t cause weight gain.
@@Iamthee_DivineGoddess wow, really? That’s interesting… I’ve never heard of someone cycle returning toward the end on the iud life… but makes sense. I went to get mine replaced at the 5 year mark and my doc kept telling me I could wait longer, but I didn’t know if I’d be able to even tell if the effectiveness was fading. Thanks for sharing!
I am certain it’s the IUD wrecking havoc on my body. I feel like I’m losing my mind. Thank you for making this video.
You are so very welcome. And I can relate… I thought I was losing my mind too. It was insanely frustrating.
Just got my Mirena implant out PLEASE get something different. It gave me so many side effects. Theres been a class action lawsuit AGAINST Mirena. It stopped accepting claims for the class action lawsuit in 2021. Same year I got on. Started making me bloated and look pregnant, started causing neuropathy problems - other people have spoken to this. I just had a mass in my reproductive system. I had NO problems prior to Mirena. ZERO health problems. Dont do it
@starsurvivor1585 you sound EXACTLY like me... got my mirena out jan 25th. Weight gain, swollen stomach (literally get asked how far along I am) migraines etc... really hoping things go back to normal for me relatively quick. Just had first period after removal and it was AWFUL. So many other side effects I think may be attributed to mirena but ???
Sound like me from the shot and patch… I’m pretty sure it was the shot but the patch was the icing on the cake for my health. I feel so sick like I am really ill and never had issues like this until the crazy hormones
Not only weight gain, depression, chin hairs, im ready to pull out my IUD myself lol. My obgyn said none of these issues are attributed to the IUD though which is not right
I didn't realize my personality was different until I took my IUD out. It didn't take too long after having it removed to really notice my old personality coming back.
@MaryZeti
Same here! I thought I was going freaking psycho until I got it removed. I made a series of bad decisions on it, and I had NO IDEA it was the hormones. The devil is a liar.
I got a Mirena because I got married, I regret it so much. I gained 10kg(22 pounds) in 5 months, kept breaking out, with painful and swollen breasts
Sending positive vibes your way!!
I feel disgusting, I’m always bloated and look 9 months pregnant
Get off of it. I just had it removed and commented on my story.
@@StarSurvivor1585 I got it out yesterday! Feeling great
ugh, I'm so sorry. I felt the same way and figured I'd get it removed and see what happens. Figured that if I wanted to I could always have one put back in. You just never know. Sending positivity your way!
Are your legs swollen at all? Mine are & I'm praying to God that it IS the IUD, because I can fix that, & the alternatives aren't really fixable. Very freaked out. So I'm trying to see if anyone else is having bloating & MAJOR water retention.
This video is so helpful. I had the mirena put in six weeks ago under general anesthesia as they also did an D & C procedure. Yesterday I got it removed at my post operation appointment. My pain had been terrible every day, 14 days of bleeding and then spotting every day, heavy bloating , cramping and vomiting lots. So yesterday I requested it out. Don't think it working for me at all.
I have possible endometriosis and will be finally going to an top specialist in endometriosis shortly to get some answers. I have been to so many Gynaecologists and they all don't really believe me, but my gp definitely expects endometriosis. Top tip find the right Gp and go straight to an endometriosis specialist.
I also had mirena back to back in my 30s. Then in February inserted the liletta. Over 2 months in and I am at 7 pounds gained. I was told it will take about 3 months for my body to adapt and I am counting the weeks. I am glad you shared your story. I at least know to draw the line if my body dies adapt like they say it should.
Im getting my IUD removed today and im soo ready I can't even sleep. It's been a bad experience for me. I've gained weight, gotten bad acne and had horrible UTI since I've had it, I've had it since 2022 and I am praying for me to lose weight and get my beautiful skin back and no more UTI!!! Thanks for sharing your experience
I have such severe bloating, it literally hasn’t gone away in years. I tried a natural bloating and digestion pill and omg it made me feel so sick. I’ve gained 40 pounds with the mirena. I had weird vision issues seeing as dots of light, tinnitus, vertigo. Also, my hair is getting brittle! Getting mine out today actually
Thank you for posting this information. When you said if you help one person then you've accomplished something. Well here 🙋♀️ I am. 47 year old. Looking for answers from someone experiencing similar symptoms and I came across your video. Thanks you so much. I appreciate your honesty and being brave to speak out about those symptoms. Im greatfull to have found you. ❤❤❤
I always find these topics to be difficult to discuss, but I genuinely just wanted to share the experience in the instance it helps someone. I am so happy you found this video to be valuable and helpful! :)
Thank you for adding some sanity to my day!!! I had the emily and when i tell you, i have done everything including IF, work outs, eating healthy but the weight was not going away. The Yeast infections became really embarrassing and a constant. I had it removed 4 days ago, hoping for the best. Huuuuuugs and love
No problem! and omg, ugh, the constant infections...I was at my witts end. I've been feeling soooo much better since getting mine removed. The infections went away and the weight is slowly trickling off. Thank you so much for sharing your experience as well. :)
I have had my Mirena IUD since April 2019 to treat my Endometriosis. It has definitely been effective in stopping my menstrual cycle and not getting pelvic pain, including bad cramps. However, I have gained quite a lot of weight. I look pregnant and am constantly bloated. I also get migraines.
I will be getting the Mirena taken out due to these unwanted side effects and hope for the best.
Yes! I am currently experiencing the same side effects. I have gained a ton of weight and I’ve had my Mirena since 2019. I will be getting it taken out soon.
Thank you for sharing! There are definitely some pros to IUD's. And migraines are so tough! I've had them for many years - they are the worst. Sending you lots of positive vibes!!!!!
I’ve lost 6 pounds in 2 days since getting my IUD removed. My experience caused so many unpleasant side effects.
This is so helpful, thank you for sharing! I am 5 months in with the IUD and having the same symptoms, having never had issues with weight or infections before. This confirms I need to make an appointment with my GP as I am still waiting for things to 'settle' down and I am not sure they are going to....
Thank you for sharing. My Dr has recommended I get an IUD & I'm trying to do as much research as I can. I find they gloss over the side effects for some reason. Your video has been really helpful in giving a realistic take on things. Btw, I find you so funny. You remind me of Becki Newton for some reason 😊
My pleasure. And good for you doing the research, there are so many options and everyone's body is different. Hope you find something that works for you! And Iove Becki Newton - she is funny! :)
They do the same thing with things like induction using Pitocin. That is WAY more dangerous than the want to let on. I don't know if most doctors just don't know this stuff, they're just not told - or if they're being deceptive. I don't know, I suspect it's some that are deceptive & many that are just ignorant. But, there are a lot more side effects to a lot of these things than what we're told. Like, right now, I have SEVERE edema/swelling/water retention & I'm pretty damn sure it's from this stupid IUD. I want it out so bad, but I don't have a doctor & am scared to do it myself.
Thank you for this video ❤ I am 31 and I’ve always been healthy but since having my iud in for 3 years now I have put on so much weight and it has took a toll on my health 😢
You are very welcome. I don't know what the deal was with my new IUD but it definitely did NOT agree with my body. Sending positive vibes your way!!!!
Im getting my Mirena temoved tomorrow after 4 years and gain 20 stubborn kgs. Really hoping my body can return to normal!
Sending good vibes your way!!!!
Hi.. omg.. thanks for this story/share.. I’m so very new to having an IUD.. but recently started noticing my bloating phases before and after a period.. I’m guessing it’s because I’m still new to this.. so I’m not sure how this IUD is hitting my body aside for the lesser flow on bleeding… but yeah.. thanks for this.. I’m still monitoring and checking is bad /hopefully it’s stays positive for me… aside from weight gaining and bloating ..lol 😅
I’ve had Mirena for 4.5 years, since I had my son. I don’t think I’m going to get it replaced after it expires, just removed. I’ve been on Phenephrine and Saxenda, and I’m also a gastric sleeve paitent so I KNOW how to lose weight, I lost 150lbs before & gained 90lbs during pregnancy & it just seems impossible to drop after the IUD. nothing is working and I’ve stayed the same weight for 2 years. By the grace of God, I was able to lose 50lbs when my son was 2 after I got on the phenephrine & saxenda, but that plateaued a year ago and I’ve been struggling so hard with my body since. So I still need 40, minimum, because I never hit my goal weight from the start. Also losing the weight after my IUD was the hardest experience, harder than losing 150lbs before I had my son and had the IUD. Also, I’ve been to the Gyno so many times for different kinds of bacterial infections not yeast (yeast is fungus, not a bad thing but bacteria is just slightly different) and I’ve never had these bacterial infections before the IUD and nothing else would be contributing to having too much bacteria in my system. The bacteria is coming from the IUD
Thank you so much for sharing your experience! I know others read these comments and will appreciate reading it as well. So so very helpful.
Thank you for your honesty.
Definitely gained weight with mine. I’ve had a bloated gut and my boobs went up a couple sizes. I’m keeping it though because having no periods beats the weight gain. Having endometriosis, my periods were absolutely horrible.
Yes, there are definitely up sides to an IUD!! I did love the convenience of it and no period. Gotta do what is best for you. :)
Forgive yourself for not knowing sooner. We are wired like that and unfortunately just get "used to it" i waited until i started having passing out spells, would get really light headed and lose vision and it started happening more frequently. Its hard to find the company or doctors describing the side effects. Best place to explore are the women with the experience! I had mine removed today. Not excited for the crash but i do feel better in terms of cramps and feeling heavy. We need to keep talking about this. ❤
I agree that we really do need to keep talking about this stuff. I had no idea that the side effects could be like this. And I've been on various types of birth control in the past so I just thought it was me or I was being dramatic or assigning blame. It really was that dang IUD. And I've been feeling soooo much better since removing it. I really appreciate your words and insight into your experience as well.
Thank you so much for this information. I did check the carburetor so it's not that. I still think it's the clutch that's doing it. Thanks.
I can relate to this 😮
29th my iud comes out
I have been suffering
How do you feel now?
I had the same weight gain experience with the Marinia IUD and felt bloated all the time.
Ugh, I’m so sorry! It really is terrible. Sending positive vibes your way!!
I never heard of that brand.
Same thing happens to me , The doctor did all the tests on me and I don't have any sexually transmitted diseases but I feel an itch and a small odorless liquid from there. They don’t says anything to worry about it, but I not happy and 5 pounds more 😔
ugh. I feel you. Mine was persistent for so long.
Thankyou!!🙌same thing happened to me
I’m sure the iud doesn’t always affect weight gain I’m in year 4 still same size if anything I believe it caused weight gain struggle for me
Lilletta is the generic of Mirena
IUD is a crappy thing I don't know why they allow it ,its not good ,it makes me so itchy for 9 mins,thank god it's out and I'm free from that experience experience
I had weird itchy hives too!!! And since taking it out have had none!
@@MaryZeti for 9 months I was suffering I'm free thank god
I appreciate everything you said my only question is what did you do about birth control or should I say not getting pregnant once you’re taking it out because that’s the only reason why I’m keeping mine in. a part of me wants to tie my tubes since I am approaching 40 but that’s another procedure and I really don’t want to have
Honestly, condoms and praying for menopause. I'm 43. I have also considered getting my tubes tied as well but to your point, it is another procedure entirely. I also would have considered getting back on the pill, but I had horrible interactions with my migraines when I was on it, so didn't want to go down that road again.
What about the man taking his responsibility after giving him 4 kids? He can get a vasectomy, sooo less invasive than getting your tubes tied..
And what about getting a Mirena again? Because you were happy about that one..🤔
Thank you for this video I had two mirenas before no problems but the liletta was horrible for me 7 months later I got it out ...
I'm glad you found the video helpful. Our experiences are very similar!
I'm going to get it removed. I was a small size 4_5 now I'm nearly a size 10 with liletta after just a few months
I also asked for a copper iud . My doctor said those are bad
I didn’t hear you say what you’re taking now? Instead of liletta ?
I'm actually taking nothing now. I did get a prescription for the mini pill from my doc, but wanted to allow time for my body to just to having zero birth control for a while.
@@MaryZeti Nice! I’m on the mini pill but my doctor is concerned I may get pregnant. I’ve also gained quite a bit of weight and most people compare the hormone in the mini pill to the iud so I’m at a loss. How are you protecting yourself from pregnancy? My husband and I have been married 10 years so condoms aren’t really appealing. Lol
How long will my weight go back to normal after I take it out? Iv put on like a stone in 9 months.. Feel so crap
It took me twice as long to take off. And only the first 5 came off easy. :/
Has anyone experienced this with the paraguard ?
I feel like I look bloated I just got it in a week ago , I had mine in for 10 years and I feel like I didn’t have issues . However maybe I did . I had similar symptoms that you mentioned but I attributed more to my implants . My poor body 😢
I had the paraguard for 8 years and yes it made me bloated I also got vertigo back problems and crazy allergies to everything .
hey to all the people saying they gained weight after iud insertion did u manage to lose the weight after its removal? i have gained 12 kgs after getting mirena and I so want to take it out but im like what if I take it out but the weight still wouldnt drop?
I have lost all of the weight I gained, but it did take some time, about twice as long to take it off.
@@MaryZeti thankyou
Which iud?
Liletta is the one that I had trouble with.
Is it copper?
@@Imanx602No. why don’t you just google the iud 😛
I also gained significant weight since IUD. I also got hives randomly. I want to remove it, but I have not found a good alternative since I cannot swallow bc pills
😭😭l gained 40 pounds in 3 months
I hoping to gain weight with mines
@tary_233 ugh. Unexplained rapid weight gain is the worst. Sending positive thoughts and vibes your way!
@leeannajohnson1008 maybe you will? Everyone's experience is unique.
@@MaryZeti 🤞🏾
Damn I just got it a week ago 😢
Maybe it will be totally fine, everyone is different! And I mean you can't beat the convenience of it. I still think it is a good product, it just wasn't a good fit for me.
I’ve put on 26 pounds in a year it’s so awful 😢
UGH! I'm so sorry. I know exactly how you feel.
😢
♥️
