So I've been on Mirena for 10 years, since I was 20. I'm up for renewal or removal on June 9th, I already scheduled the removal because I've always wondered who I am as an adult without it and if it's a big contributor to my anxiety and depression issues.

After reading all the accounts on here of post removal crashes I'm reconsidering if I should go ahead with removal or renew it? The problem is I'm getting married next year and we just started wedding planning and I'm terrified of what could go wrong - I already gained so much weight on this thing I can't afford to gain more I will lose my mind.

I thought removing it would improve my mental wellbeing and I'd be after for feel more deeply again and enjoy the wedding process and the wedding day but I'm so scared it's going to make everything worse. Should I do it now or wait until after the wedding and honemoon.

Looking for some beautiful rocky mountain ceremony and/or reception locations and venues! Trying to keep the venue budget 4

-7k depending on what's included. Thinking approximately 80 guests, maybe less, including the wedding party. We're open to doing a ceremony in the mountains with a reception somewhere else but hopefully with a view if that's doable with this budget.

I've been on Mirena since 2016, 2 rounds. I was 20 when I first got it put in and I've been on it with no breaks since. I'll be 30 this year and I'm up for a renewal in July. My fiance and I definitely don't want kids any time soon so I want some birth control, but I'm going through weight and mental health struggles lately. What I'm wondering is anyone's experience getting off of it after years?

I've spent my whole 20s with it and I can't help but wonder how much it's affecting me and how I see myself. My libido has always been low since it (but I also have depression and anxiety and high stress) and the weight has increased since being on it as well. I do like the success I've had with it as far as reducing my bad periods because I suspect I have either PCOS or endometriosis (my mom has it) and I'm scared to go back to that.

Supposedly the side effects shouldn't affect my depression and anxiety or weight but I'm not sure.

TLDR; I'm considering getting off Mirena after having it my whole 20s, if you've gotten off after years did it positively affect you?
