Mirena And Persistant Bleeding Posted: 11-12-05 15:05pm
I got mirena iud inserted about 4 weeks
ago 10 weeks after I had baby number 5.
Since I got it I have had no stop light
bleeding. I also have very mild crapping
once in a while. Anyone else had
problems with mirena and would it be best
to go see my obgyn and get it removed???
Thanks for any help

It's very common to have spotting for the
first 3-6 months & your period may be
irregular while your body adjusts. It
should start to get better in the next
couple of months, but if things get worse
or you start having pain or something then
you should go see your doctor.

I too had spotting for about the first 5-6
weeks after I had it inserted. It
stopped for about a month and then I only
had mild bleeding for a couple of days so
it looks like now that my period may be
nearly non-existent! I'd say it's
definitely worth it!!
