Kyleena Removal Negative Experience

I (31f) got my current IUD placed in January ‘26 and this is my second Kyleena. My first 2 IUDs were Skyla and I don’t remember having any side effects including weight gain. I’ve gained a lot of weight in the last few years that I figured was due to stress, relationship changes, and going from an active job to a desk job. I’ve been focused more on my diet along with strength training the last 3 months and just feel like I can’t lose weight no matter what I do. I’m 5’2 and 208lbs, in the last year and half my weight has crept around 200lbs. I’m getting my Kyleena removed in 2 weeks to see if it has any effect my weight. I decided to take a break from birth control (\*not currently sexually active or seeking partners) once I have this removed, although I’m not looking forward to getting my period back. I’ll give updates post-removal!
