Does Mirena make you gain weight?

Hey! Was wondering if anyone had weight gain and mood swings with the Mirena IUD. Two years ago I went off it and lost my 50 pounds (I’m overweight about 50 pounds) and last year I went back on it around March and 2 months later (roughly) I started to gain the weight back and now I’m back up to previous weight :persevere: this is with being physically active, eating about 1500 calories a day, I’ve cut out carbs and sugars, drink my water… I do everything right. But I’m stuck at this weight. I’ve also been through swings of depression which I’ve never had before. I think it’s starting to add up that it’s my IUD. Seeing my doctor Monday but wanted to see what everyone else’s experiences are. Thank you! :blush:
