I had few problems with Mirena. I had cramping frequently and I put on 5 lbs in about 4-5 wks from insertion. I dont know if the weight gain was from Mirena but I dont gain that fast normally. The doctor said weight gain was not due to that but I was going crazy. I didnt want to regain any weight becoz of this. I removed the Mirena a month ago and I have lost the 5 pounds that I gained. So Mirena may be great for some and not so great for some. :))

I got uterine infections from the Mirena and it also caused weight gain for me.
