Well the question is, why would it be
kinda painful during sex?
For you or for the guy?
It could be painful for you just because
the hormones might make your cervix a
little sensitive- like happens to many
women at certain times during their cycle.
Thus, every time he hits your cervix, you
feel pain.
Or it could make you have less
lubrication, hence some irritation.
Or the strings could be poking your man,
which shouldn't hurt him, but some people
have reported that it is uncomfortable
(leaving the strings longer might help
with this, then they can tuck in around
your cervix instead of poking out.)

sorry my computer kicked me
off and i didn't get to finish. my
question is how soon to you start to get
your period back. I have done a lot of
research on how to conceive a boy and it
requires you to have intercourse 6 hours
before ovulation. i would like to track
my ovulation as soon as it is removed to
concieve as soon as possible. if anyone
knows the answer please let me
know
My doctor has always told me that you
should get your period within a month of
taking it out (depending on when your
cycle ends). He said you can get pregnant
right away.

You can get pregnant right away, but if
you're trying to track ovulation
correclty, you might want to wait out the
first month because it might not give
really accurate or normal results.

well, here's an update. i got my Mirena
taken out in June. i asked to be put back
on the pill so they put me on
OrthoTriCyclen. They took the Mirena out
on a Thursday and i started my first pill
pack on the following Sunday. I had issues
previously with the pill making me
nauseated. It was to the point that even
the thought of putting the pill in my
mouth made me feel sick (due to that i
didn't take my pills like i should have,
which is how i got pregnant with my son,
which is why my doc recommended Mirena and
i got it in the first place).
about a week to a week and a half after i
started my pills, i had some spotting for
a few days and then it stopped. the pills
made me feel nauseous just like they did
before but i forced myself to take them
every morning thinking i'd get used to
them or something. i got to the end of the
pack but no period came. i didn't start my
new pack so i have been off the pill for
about 2 weeks. still no period!
in the month that i was on the pill i
gained about 10 lbs. i have decided to not
take anymore and see if i get a period and
if i can get my weight down. i'll see how
it goes and update again later on.

update on merina iud Posted: 07-26-08 23:44pm
I had my IUD removed on june 18th and the
very next day I had a full period for 7
days. I went back in on June 30th for a
full physical and blood work to see if I
was healthy enough to conceive a child.
Everything went well. I started
immediately tracking my ovulation and I
ended up having another period only 22
days later on July 9. It lasted 6 days.
Still tracking my ovulation my husband and
I have tried to conceive. I believe I
maybe pregnant now. I have all the signs
of a pregnancy but I have at least another
week till I find out if I am. I will let
everyone know if it is a positive or not.
I hope this will help anyone who wants to
know if it is possible to conceive
immediately upon removing or if you will
get a cycle quickly or not. thank you for
listening

If nausea is your only problem, that can
sometimes be solved by taking the pill at
a different time of day- if you take it in
the morning now, try taking it with
dinner, or before bed.
But that doesn't sound like the only
problem you've had with it.

I had NO problems with Merina Posted: 08-18-08 18:40pm
I had Merina put in back in 2005 3 months
after the birth of my daughter..... The
procedure took no longer then 15 minutes
and I was out the door. For me it was not
painful at all just a little pinch when
the was checking my
cervix. After about 2 months I had no
period and for those two months my period
was lighter and shorter. Now I am one of
those to whom Merina came out on its own
with no reason that any can find. It came
out in March of 2007. I have been tested
for a number of different things to see
why it came out and nothing has been found
as to why..... I did not have any abnormal
weight gain as some woman have said but I
was in the army at the time too... I
gained weight because of the working out
every day. After I got out of the army I
found myself actually loosing weight. I am
one of those whom suffered from acne
before Merina and after my face was very
much clearer then before and I did nothing
different with that so Thanks Merina for
that one lol . As far as
the bleeding after it is out I had no
problem with heavier bleeding or anything
like that my periods came back normal. I
am going tomorrow to get it put back
in.... I am sick of having a period... and
my acne is back now so....
This works differently for every
woman..... Not everyones body is the same.
If you have sever complications from any
birth control you might want to see if
your body can handle estrogen... Some
woman can not handle larger "doses" of
Estrogen.
I do have one question though lol
How long after it gets put in do you have
to way to have intercourse? Before when I
had it I was not active with anyone so I
didnt really care but now I am in an
"active" relationship might be something
to know lol
