I am late, But you can do like this

server{
  listen 443 ssl;
  server_name www.mydomain.com;
  root /www/mydomain.com/;

  ssl    on;
  ssl_certificate /ssl/domain.crt;
  ssl_certificate /ssl/domain.key;
  .
  . 
  .
}

server{
  listen 80;
  server_name www.mydomain.com mydomain.com;
  return 301 https://$server_name$request_uri;
}

server{
  listen 443;
  server_name mydomain.com;
  return 301 https://www.$server_name$request_uri;
}

Or you can replace return 301 https://www.$server_name$request_uri; with rewrite ^ http://www.$server_name$request_uri? permanent;, both will work.

You also need to set this in google webmaster for better SEO.
