I am 27 and was diagnosed with atrial fibrillation a year ago after 3 years of irregular heart beats, light headedness and palpitations. The symptoms started a few months after I had the Merina coil put in. I have had ablation surgery to treat the arteries in my heart (which is the most effective treatment) but it hasn't had any effect. I found some information suggesting that anything that irritates the lining of the womb can cause an imbalance of progesteron and in turn lead to arrhythmia in the heart. Here's a link to the podcast that talks about this. The section about the coil is quite quick but it's in there. I am having the coil removed next week so hopefully it will have some effect.
