Weight gain on IUD? Switch to copper?

Angela

Ive had Mirena for 2 years now and have gained 15 lbs. I've tried losing through diet and exercise but its been so hard. I've heard of girls losing the weight once they've removed it but I don't want to go back on the pill. Is the copper IUD better since there's no hormones?
