Does Mirena Cause High Blood Pressure?
I had the IUD Mirena inserted after the birth of my daughter this past July. I had no issues with it and all of a sudden last week my blood pressure shot up and stayed up. The highest it got was 197/140. I haven't had a history of BP issues and while doing my research on HBP I ran across the fact that my Mirena is the colprit. I am scheduled to have it removed tomorrow...will my pressure return to normal since that was the likely cause?

The High blood you have and the IUD is nothing to do with each other this could be coincidence only, better to confirm the hypertension if have not consulted to physician it is advisable to get it confirm, take care.
