After Endo surgery & 2 kids - Mirena for contraception ?
Posted: Tue Sep 13, 2022 3:04 am
Hi,
After 7 years of trying to get pregnant, I was finally diagnosed with Endometriosis & was removed 5y ago. Since I have had two IVF 2 babies and about 10months ago I chose hormonal Mirena for contraception.
BUT I have three of the side effects:
1. VERY BAD acne around the chin, not going away. (never had acne even when I was a teenager)
2. Extremely bad mood, teary and overwhelmed. (totally unlike me)
3. Libido is almost = 0 (makes me wonder what's the point of contraception ?
)
My question is: What would you recommend as the most effective contraception for someone who has Endo and is trying to ensure it does not return?
I may add I am a year apart being 40 & ike to best prepare my body for menopause as well.
Would your book of Hormon Repair Manual help me?
Thanks for any comments in advance.
