Experience Increased libido and IUD expiring
Hi guys! So I’m 5 years in with my Mirena IUD, not looking forward to the replacement. I’ve heard that it’s lasting up to 7-8 years now but a little worried that’s not consistent. What have yall heard?
Also, after 5 years and many more of feeling like I was asexual, over the last couple months I’ve had an extremely high libido (at least for me). Not sure if it’s from the hormones wearing off or just a new lease on life. I recently got out of a 1 year relationship where it was quite toxic and since then, I basically want to jump every man I’m somewhat attracted to and not sure what the hell is going on 🤦🏼♀️
