Dear- thanks for using our service. It is safe to take out the Mirena, it does not control the menstrual period but contraception. If you have irregular menstrual period , it is better to take birth control pill which will help that and the contraception. However, mood swings and weight gain are part of the hormonal components of the birth control medication, but you can talk to your gynecologist to find one with less hormone concentration.
I hope that my advise has been helpful
