Yes, but maybe more: Between 5% and 10% of Mirena (levonorgestrel) users may experience:depressed mood however, you may be experiencing post-partum depression as well. 10-15% of women will experience this form of depression after a pregnancy. This ca be serious if it worsens. Your ob/gyn or family doctor can help you through this period; please ask them for help!

Yes: Any type of hormonal birth control can cause mood changes. It is also common for women to have depression and other mood changes that are unrelated to the birth control. Please mention your symptoms to your doctor so your birth control can be changed, or so you can receive other treatment.

Possibly: Although Mirena (levonorgestrel) contains Progesterone and injectable Progesterone can sometimes trigger depression, the amount of Progesterone that gets into the bloodstream from Mirena (levonorgestrel) is low. It's possible that Mirena (levonorgestrel) is a factor, but being the mother of a 2 year old is highly stressful. I would recommend that you discuss your depression with your doctor. I would not assume that removing the Mirena (levonorgestrel) will help.

Yes: Depression is definitely a side effect of this contraceptive treatment. You should discuss this immediately with your gynecologist. You should not have to suffer through depression as you have been for as long as you have been.
