I posted yesterday on depression forum but after doing some research think the problem may be with the Mirena Coil. I have had the coil for a number of years now. I can't remember if I had any problems with my first coil but since getting my second one fitted in 2012 I just don't feel right. My head is not clear and I seem to have a constant cycle of a couple of average/low mood weeks, followed by a week where I feel really low and anxious (I get the feeling this would be the week I would have menstruated) then the following week I feel on top of the world and can take on the world and round and round it goes. I have now got to the point where I feel I can't carry on on this neverending cycle anymore. Has anyone else had problems with moods with the Mirena Coil? My mood swings are terrible and often feel angry and irritable. I don't know if the problem is anxiety/depression or whether it is connected to the coil. As it is I am thinking of having it removed, to remove that possibility if nothing else. Anyone had the Mirena removed and then felt better?

i'm 45 and just had the hormone mirena coil fitted a few days ago due to having heavy and twice monthly periods for over a year painful as well. the reason i chose the coil is that i wanted to try anything other than medication-tablets which i am on a few too many,and for heavy bleeding too. side effects i was having with my periods are (Irritation at anything, sex between me and my partner were NON Existent-still feeling like this, argumentative, but since having the coil fitted i have feel CALM, me and my partner are trying to get back on track with everything but communication failed and i felt annoyed-irritated but calmer which i haven't felt in a long time... I would like to know if weight is an issue with the coil please let me if this part of hormone coil and if there's any relaxation techniques to help with my mood swings etc.
View 1 RepliesDuloxetine :: Withdrawal - Mood Swings And Irritability
I would like to share with you my own experience with cymbalta. I have been taking this medication for a year(60 mg) my doctor prescribed it for depression and anxiety. After 6 months of taking cymbalta i was feeling better, my anxiety decreased and i was able to live a normal life. Now after a year i decided to wean off cymbalta. I decreased my dose to 30 mg for 3 month. And for the fourth month am taking 30 mg pill a day after another. It's been a week i started feeling nervous, my anxiety increased and and am having extreme mood swings and an irritability that quickly turns into rage. Adding to the previous am having nausea and nightmares. I know these are duloxetine withdrawal symptoms that my GP did not explain it for me when prescribing me cymbalta. I will be strong and am not giving up. I wish i didn't take it.

I'm almost 42 and have not been feeling right great for a few months. I'm on the pill so can't say much about periods but waking up in night feeling roasting but my skin is cold except for face. Worst thing is mood swings... I feel irritable all the time. At night when I can't sleep and dog snoring for example drives me crazy. Bloated too which feels awful. And digestive issues. Also feel quite anxious which is odd because I haven't felt like that before and loss of libido.

I got the NuvaRing, it's been about two months. First month my it was normal. But now I'm having crazy mood swings, my face is breaking out, and it's a week before I'm supposed to take it out to have my period and I'm having heavy bleeding, very unusual, and horrible abdominal pains. I just took it out to let my body regulate itself again. It was making me miserable. I COULD take the pill....but I need to really discipline myself to take it everyday. I've let the internet scare me away from Paragard. But honestly I just need REAL opinions, suggestions, from real woman.

This contraceptive was the first and the worst that I tried. I put on weight, had terrible mood swings, headaches and a general feeling that something was not right. I was on it for about 9 months before I couldn't take it anymore. I would not recommend to anyone. Plus it hurts like hell for 3 days when you get the jab in you bum. Nothing positive to say about this.

I suffer with Rheumatoid Arthritis and so have been on all sorts of painkillers and medicines, opiate based seem to be the only ones that genuinely work. I have struggled with addiction until finally learning my tolerances and tapering etc. etc. so I can take them safely without doing myself in.
I tried Tramadol, they stopped me sleeping and effected my mood. I am also on an SSRI, they interacted and caused weird symptoms so I have stopped them and gone back to Dihydrocodeine so physical symptoms are pretty mild.
I am however suffering severe mood swings still; depression, insomnia, RLS, muscle pain...
It has been exactly a week, does anyone know how long these issues might last? As I am struggling at the moment, struggling to keep up with work and responsibilities. I know it will end, I am positive about this, just looking for a time frame!

View 28 RepliesPerimenopause 50 :: Mood Swings, Crying Spells, Dizziness, Forgetfulness
I turned 50 several months ago and I do believe i'm in perimenopause for at least the past year. The gyn I went to thought so just from talking/exam. I don't have medical insurance so i cannot even afford a doctor now to help me figure it all out...but after reading on the net i don't think it would be of any help anyway.
I think the only symptom i don't have is hot flashes or night sweats. About four months ago my periods started getting strange....from being every 28 days exactly to about being late by 2.5 weeks. I have mood swings, crying spells, dizziness, forgetfulness, very bad insomnia, very bad palpitations (especially before period) etc etc.
The dizziness and that brain fog get to me a lot. I was standing at an event the other night completely fine and then all of a sudden i got dizzy and foggy for about 2 minutes...and then...i was fine. It was very weird but got me nervous.
Now for the past few months I have been getting twitches in my eye. I assume I am dying and easily shrug off the fact that I work on a computer doing medical transcription about 12 hours a day and have really bad allergies and very very dry eyes....in reality this could be contributing to the twitches. But i think I am now a hypochondriac. Today i am getting these odd little twitches in my side. I realize I just polished off 3 16 ounce cups of coffee, and anyone in their right mind would say you should consider that into the fact...but now I'm really getting nervous.
And as you all know, google our symptoms and we have some deadly disease. But after reading around i think this to may just be another perimenopause symptom with the fluctuating hormones. Its driving me nuts tho. I can lift weights and air conditioners etc lol without any problem so im not weak. But do you ladies get these weird twitches and things as well?
And the tiredness.....but it seems to only happen during the day. When I end work at 12 midnight i get a second wind and can stay up for hours. I know, that's not helping my daytime fatigue. And here i go with the brain fog again...it gets all cloudy. This is ridiculous. Will i ever be normal again?

NuvaRing Side Effects - Weight Gain, Acne And Mood Swings
1) Weight Loss- I put Nuvaring in 3 weeks ago & 5 days ago I took it out so that i could get my period (&did) but within this 5 days i have lost 6 pounds. I am 19 years old & weighed 112 but weigh 106 as of today. It is not that I feel disgustingly full, I just don't have any interest in food & when i do try to eat it is almost as if i get sick of eating, if that makes any sense?
2) Acne- I am drastically breaking out on my hairling & chest.
3) Mood Swings- I have extreme highs & lows in my mood to the point where find myself crying for little to no reason at all but then I am over the top loving & happy.
I am just wondering if these side effects are normal to all birth controls or if I should considering switching to a new one

Perimenopause At 39? Hot Flashes, Night Sweats, Mood Swings, Headaches, Ringing In My Ears
I've been to two gynos with my issues and I'm getting a little frustrated but I think I've figured this out on my own anyway. I'm 39, work out intensely 6 times a week, have 11 year old twins, no history of gynecological disease, and for the past year I've been experiencing signs of perimenopause. I haven't missed a period yet but sometimes I get two (yay me) and sometimes I get one that's either very light and short or very heavy and long. I have hot flashes, night sweats, mood swings, headaches, ringing in my ears on a regular basis for about 4 months(that hasn't happened in a few months now), extreme breast tenderness, fatigue, itchy skin, aversion to odors that normally don't bother me, digestive issues, etc. I can go down a list of symptoms of perimenopause and I have at least 12 of them. The problem is that when I tell a dr these things, they don't offer much help and they basically dismiss the idea that I could be perimenopausal at 39. I want them to understand that I'm miserable and I feel like **** 50% of the time because of these symptoms. They offer me the pill or an IUD to which I politely decline, leave, and go to my local homeopathic pharmacy to have some compounds made to help me cope with these insane symptoms.
View 3 RepliesContraception :: Cerazette And Low Mood/mood Changes
I had the mirena coil removed at the beginning of January this year due to bad side effects and I decided to go straight back on Cerazette which previously worked really well for me. However, whether I should have or not, I've stopped taking it. I found that it was causing me to get upset over the smallest of things and just generally feel really down quite often. Has anyone else experienced this?
I was also bleeding quite heavily every other week and I have just been bleeding constantly for nearly 3 weeks so that's another reason why I've stopped. I was also experiencing quite a few of the common side effects.
So has anyone else experienced low mood/mood changes on Cerazette before? As I don't know what to do if it doesn't resolve.
Anxiety :: Excess Mucus
I'm 69 & only have had 2 significant health issues over the past 7 or so years:-
1) BPH with a permanent indwelling catheter for 3 years..
2) chronic mucus production.
the BPH has been recently sorted with a TURP but the mucus problem is still ongoing.& seems to be triggered if i want to go out or do some simple task in the house - i just cough it up to the point of being sick - the mucus is clear, sticky & sometimes frothy.
strangely the "attacks" never happen in anyone's presence & when i was in hospital for the TURP & before that for 2 weeks suffering from urine retention "the attacks" never happened at all.(??)
