[quote=Anonymous]With my first DD I tried the Mirena, and it did affect my milk supply. I had to start supplementing and by the time I figured out what was happening and had the Mirena removed I was never able to get back to producing enough to EBF my DD. I already had a low supply to begin with and was just producing enough to feed my DD. With my second DD I had a talk with my OB, and she confirmed that any hormonal birth control method will affect milk supply a little. Since I had a low supply it was noticeable, but for people with a good supply there shouldn't be any issues. My sister also had the Mirena, and she suffered from horrible acne and mood swings. I had some mood swings but even worse a complete lack of sex drive. Things returned back to normal for both of us when the Mirena was removed. I personally wouldn't try the Mirena again.[/quote]
