Levonorgestrel
birth control
"This experience is hellish!  Although it doesn't allow you to get preg, as intended, it makes you have many side effects.  I am a healthy 5'7" althletic woman.  I weighed 130 when inserted 6 months ago.  My sugar cravings and moods have been all over the map.  I am bloated.  I am swollen.  My periods are still heavy.  They actually are twice as long now.  My sex drive us non existent.  I've been to a hormone specialist now (1k later in costs) to get blood drawn only to find out all of above and the 14lb weight gain (I'm now 144lb) is all bc of this device.  I'm constantly bloated.  My size 4 pants no longer fit my swollen and worn out body.  Beware!  Get it out!  You've been talked into this and likely don't need it!!!!"
