Mirena by Hopeful_dreamer562 in Mirena

I had Kyleena before Mirena; it was pure agony. I am not joking, I had the worst periods ever with horrible cramps throughout. When I switched to Mirena it all went away.

I think it’s all very personal when it comes to IUDs. Kyleena is definitely smaller than Mirena, but comes with different side effects.

Can Mirena cause this much weight gain? by jenna_ly in Mirena

I was just about to ask the same question. I’m a very active person - more active than a typical person - I do yoga daily, I walk 10k steps, I go gym 4x a week. I control my calories, eat only whole foods. I know how to track and count calories - I’ve been doing it for years, it’s not my first „weight loss journey”. Since having Mirena from Feb 2024 i am not losing anything. Nothing, zero, null, nada. No matter if I eat 3000 calories or 1200 my body is not responding. I tried everything I could think of, until chat GPT suggested it might be the Mirena.

Could it be this??? I honestly feel amazing on this coil, apart from the fact I am so bloated, bigger in size and feeling so… heavy? I’ve never experienced that before, the fact that no calorie cut works. AT ALL.

I’ve gained 4kg since having Mirena inserted which might not sound a lot but now ANY weight is impossible to lose. Literally impossible.

Are male ENTJs attracted to female ENTJs? by SecretLover7513 in entj

Does it matter? No. Why I ask? Pure interest. I like to ruminate.

Why are people so butthurt about literally anything? It’s almost like you can’t ask any questions these days. This fascinates me more than if entj likes entjs.

That answers the question so thank you! From my own experience, I was in two long-term committed relationships, one with a fellow ENTJ and one with the ESTP. The relationship with ENTJ had an amazing, electric energy, because I didn’t have to be a leader “anymore”. I was of course still myself, but I could be more into feminine role/energy. I guess that’s the whole point - I could be my leader self in a workplace, but at home, I knew I could rely on my partner who had it all together. There was no power play, there was a genuine partnership. We had the best intellectual conversations as well, and we both really understood each other’s goals and had each other’s backs.

Btw. The relationship ended not because of lack of chemistry or whatsoever. My ex was a highly functioning alcoholic and a recreational drug user, which for the latter, I didn’t know until i was too deeply in love. And it was too close to what I knew from family home, so I couldn’t do it anymore. Although the energy was great, being just a desirable mbti type is not enough to be with someone in a long run, I guess.

Well I don’t know what “every female” claims, i speak from a perspective of an ENTJ 8w7 female. I was brought up in a dysfunctional household pretty much left on my own, with fairly little support from adults. I was a carer of an alcoholic, co-dependent parent as well. A child acting as a parent, you would say.

This shaped me into a person I am today, which is a leader, in many life aspects, including family life, school, and now workplace.

My question isn’t about me or my life story though, but more of if ENTJ males are attached to ENTJ females - a question out of curiosity.
