For me, there's a big disconnect between my body actually wanting to have sex (being horny, having actual physical feelings of arousal) and me being open to having sex. I had mirena for one year and my sex drive literally died No desire what so ever and extreme painful intercourse happened. We have all started talking about post preg contraception and i've seen a lot of positive comments about the coil (even though i need to get my head round something so intrusive) but my dh has said that he has heard it can cause reduced sex drive Im really reluctant to go back on the pill. My relationship with my wife has gone rapidly downhill.
When using mirena, the synthetic progestin can alter these hormonal balances Some women report feeling less interested in sex after starting mirena due to these changes The relationship between hormones and libido is complex It varies from person to person based on individual biology, emotional state, relationship dynamics, and overall health. The mirena iud is a hormonal iud that can come with side effects Some of those include longer periods, nausea, bloating, the mirena falling out, and more.
My gyno didn't believe any of it. The truth is, you might feel an increase in sex drive after having an iud inserted because you don't have to worry about an unplanned pregnancy (per glamour) While iuds do not protect against stds, their high effectiveness rate and low maintenance can make your sex life much more enjoyable. Your iud probably won't affect your sex drive there are two types of iuds Jaime knopman, fertility expert at the new york outpost of the colorado center for reproductive medicine. I had the mirena coil fitted about 4 months ago & have noticed i have had very little s£x drive ever since
I checked the leaflet of side effects and this is quite a common one What i wondered was, has anyone else experienced this and did things improve after a while using the coil e.g Or was this a permanent problem?
