Kyleena IUD experience
I’ve had my IUD for 3 months now, and there are a few side effects I’ve noticed (this was just my experience)
•mood swings (angry ones) lol
•spike in sex drive
•weight loss
I know this IUD is a low dose of hormones so I was surprised about the mood swings. When I mentioned this to my doc she had asked if my life was particularly more stressful lately and I said somewhat but my reactions to situations where I normally would be calm I found myself extremely upset/angry! Lol just a warning.
The spike in sex drive was shocking too. I typically can go a month or so without sex without being bothered but soon after the few weeks of this insertion I found myself wanting to have sex EVERY DAY.
As for the weight loss aspect... I’ve researched if this is a side effect and it typically is not.. but what I will say is, I have had the same exact routine (occasional exercise, below average diet, and light activity through out my work days) and I’ve noticed my clothes fitting better and scale decreasing and I have done absolutely nothing differently in my routine! (Not complaining about this side effect)
Hope this helps someone!
