I have bleed for 9/10 days the past 2 months, had head aches, high blood pressure, a vile temper, sometimes mild cramp, and a general lazy attitude towards everything. I feel lathargic, bitchy, moody, stressed and i dont know how to calm this down. Is this my body disagreeing with the coil and should i have it taken out?my boyfriend is at the end of his tether with me because out physical life is non existant, we argue everyday because of my moods and paranoia and he is sick of my not having energy to do anything.does anyone else have this and can advise me?

I had the Mirena coil and although it worked, it stopped my periods and I didn't like it. And when I had it removed my skin errupted bigtime for weeks. I'm not sure whether you have the IUD with any hormonal component like the Mirena, but it seems that your hormones are out of kilter. So, go back and try something else. Or at least have the conversation with a doctor. Getting the right contraception is trial and error.

 I agree, go see your doctor. Obviously this may NOT be the birth control for you.

 My advice is that you should be taking yourself to see a doctor. It could be the coil, but you really need a professional to access you. The headaches and high BP are enough to warrant a visit to your GP. Off you go, now!
