Anxiety from hormonal changes

...See more I don't know how much of mine is stress from getting ready to move states or from getting on and off birth control. I was put on the Mirena IUD to help with my endometriosis and it was great for the first month and a half, but I had to get it out after 3 months because I was getting increasing panic attacks and palpitations. I also ended up losing 11lbs in 3 months from nausea. I got it taken out about a month ago and the panic attacks have been happening all week. I ended up at the ER one day and had an EKG which proved to be normal. My PCP put me on Lexapro and that's helping a little bit. I also see a therapist on Tuesday to share my issues. Has anyone else had these kind of issues from hormonal birth control?
