Mirena Coil and Low -Carbing - bit long sorry :)From: Sam (anonymous@obgyn.net)Fri, 31 Mar 2000 07:28:50 -0600 (CST)
Hi - In February, (before I found this forum)I was fitted with a Mirena Coil, which I understand releases progesterone (sp??) over something like a 5 year period. It is hoped that this treatment will stop the long AF's Im experiencing (light but lasting months). I am unable to take other BCP because of a deep vein thrombosis I had during my second pregnancy. Nearly 6 weeks ago, thanks to postings here, I started the Atkins diet and have felt better than I have for ages. However, my AF came nearly two weeks ago and I experienced very bad PMS DURING it. Also it has not finished entirely .. as per my problems before Mirena was fitted. Also for last 10 days I have been getting horrible headaches and very tired and quite irritable over small things. Is it likely that the Mirena (prgesterone) is the cause, or could my low-carbing be the problem. Im very happy with my eating plan - take lots of supplements and have lost 18lbs. Any advice, help or info on this form of BC much appreciated. Tks & rgds Sam Phillips
