Well they never stopped 4 me they just come right back and it got worse the longer i have had it!This thing has caused me such terrible side effects!I wish i could have told you all the troubles i and most of the others in this forum have suffered w this thing and the danger the doctors don't tell you about like massive weight and mood swings.Its just one problem after the other.Like most ppl here i have lost my sex drive completely the whole reason i got it in the 1st place!Its just really not worth all the pain or risk.Also i have seen many Merina warnings that says not 2 get the merina if you beastfeed i think bc of all the toxins and hormones it releases but i am not really sure.Just checkup on that k?
