Although it can be a great contraceptive choice, the Mirena IUD has several potential side effects one should be aware of. Some of the less evasive side effects can be: headache, acne, and change in menstrual flow. Some of the more evasive side effects include mood changes, breast tenderness and lower abdominal and Back pain. There are also some more serious risks such as ovarian cysts, perforation of the uterus wall and infection.

Hi,

I just wanted to clarify that I have had the mirena for years now and the only side effect I have experienced is no more periods. So it's not always so doomsday, in fact I doubt that is the norm at all.

Thanks!

If you're pregnant on Mirena, you'll have a positive pregnancy test. The IUD does not affect the accuracy of a pregnancy test.
