Unfortunately, as with pills, the Mirena IUD can cause discomfort related to a decrease in mood. Depressed mood and depression are well-known side effects of hormonal contraceptives. Depression can be severe and is a well-known risk factor for suicidal behavior and suicide.
If you experience mood changes or symptoms of depression, including shortly after starting treatment, it is recommended that you consult your doctor.
Therefore, please consult your gynaecologist about the best form of contraception.
You can book Mirena from the pharmacy of your choice using our portal.
