I have a mild psoriasis but since I had mirena coil fitted my psoriasis worsen. Can this be a side effect of mirena coil? At the same time I fitted the coil I also spoilt my diet a bit, eating foods that I shouldn t as part of my psoriasis diet, so I can t say for certain that this is because of the coil. But I would like to know if there is a possibility that the coil cause my psoriasis to get worst.

Hello and thank you for your question.
While the Mirena can not cause psoriasis, it can make it worse by causing hormonal changes in your body.
