I've had a mirena IUD for 7 years now. My first Mirena was a bit of a rollercoaster. I bled for 3 months with constant cramping. Then it went away, along with my period. For awhile, I actually had an insanely high sex drive, which stayed with me for about 5 years -no period, no cramping, no pms, no babies, and tons of sex, the first Mirena was a miracle. When it was time to have it changed out, I got another Mirena. Ever since I've gotten the 2nd one in, I've had no sex drive. It's dual-effective, prevents implantation, but destroys all desire for sex, so it's abstinence too! WOW! (sarcastic). I used to be fun, flirty, and playful, and now thoughts of flirting and sex don't even cross my mind, and if they do, it's with a sense of disgust. Like gross, how could anyone enjoy giving a blowjob? I feel like I've become asexual, which makes it very difficult to relate to the rest of hormone-driven humanity. I don't even enjoy masturbation anymore. My pussy has become as dry and lifeless as the Sahara. It's like I'm going through menopause at 28 years old. I feel sorry for my boyfriend, who I am splitting up with, because physical intimacy has just become gross to me - he's done nothing to deserve this, and I mostly hope it hasn't damaged his self-esteem overly much. I can watch porn or "sexy" music videos, and it's like a 0, zip, nada, I may as well be watching a nature documentary because there are no sexual feelings whatsoever. Maybe it's something mental or different in me that's shifted, and it's not the IUD, but it did all begin when I got it changed out, so I'm guessing it is. I want to remove it, but I'm such a heavy bleeder when I have a period that I'm constantly anemic and sick. At this point, I'm ready to solemnly declare myself a spinster for life and I envision my future self having 10 cat children and in a loving relationship with chocolate.
