Sex drive after switching to mirena?

Question

Has anyone who was originally on the pill and have problems with their sex drive switch to the iud and see an improvement? I've been on pills for about 3 years now and I used to be a horny person. Then I met my husband and started taking birth control pills and I never want sex. At first I thought I just had no sex drive but I used to think about sex all the time before the pills. I suck at remembering to take them so I want to switch to the iud but will it help my sex drive even if it's still hormonal? Only people who have made the switch answer, please.

Answer

Every body reacts to hormonal bc in different ways.  The pill affected my sex drive but so did the mirena;  I think I just don't react well to hormonal bc in general. Have you thought about a copper IUD?

Answer

I didn't notice a difference personally.  I went from Nuva ring to mirena and the only difference was the absence of my regular visitor. Other wise there wasn't much difference in how I felt, but Nuva ring nor the pills I took before made me feel any different.  Tho I did get off pills because they caused me to start getting huge painful cysts on my face and I though "if this is what they do to my face, I can't imagine what they're doing to my insides."
