Hey guys, I've been truly struggling with stagnant weight, and I've read that it could be due to the IUD. I'm not severely overweight but would like to drop about 8kgs, I've been exercising (6 days a week) and counting calories for months with absolutely no change in weight. I have no hormonal issues, nor PCOS. Has anyone noticed a weight related difference after having an IUD removed? Also, a bonus question. if anyone has removed the IUD and gone onto something else for the endometriosis, what did you start using instead?

One user mentioned that they had the Mirena IUD and experienced weight gain, but did not specify if removing it led to weight loss. Another user with stage 4 endometriosis reported increased pain after getting an IUD. A different user suggested talking to a doctor if the IUD is causing more harm than good, and shared their personal experience of switching to depo provera shots after experiencing increased pain from the IUD. However, no one specifically mentioned noticing a weight-related difference after having an IUD removed or using a specific alternative for endometriosis.
