Merina and hair loss?

I have had the merina for about 4 months and I want to know if any one has experienced hair loss with this birth control. Recently I have been loosing my hair. All my blood work is normal and I have been spilling kentons in my urine. I did a little research on the Mirena and it is noted to effect glucose processing and cause hair loss . Of course you don't get told this at the time of your ob visit. Has any one experienced this?

No, but it is time to switch your birth control.
Planned parent hood has a great site on all the new ones out. Check it out and then head to the doctors to switch to something you have researched. You will know what is best for you.

I have seen hairloss as on of the side effects, but you can read yourself the different warnings:

Not sure of that but you can try these remedies. Here a few simple home remedies which can be tried at home to control hair fall. To treat hair loss apply a little lemon juice with some black tea. Massage well and shampoo.Rub oil into the scalp. Wring out a towel in hot water and wrap it on the head. Keep it on for 15 minutes. Shampoo and dry well.
