5 weeks after mirena removal...no period.

Hi.

I was just wondering if i should do a pregnancy test or wait a while?! I had mirena removed  5 weeks ago...bled the 3rd day after it was removed for 1 day and nothing since! Had the merina for 18 months and didn't have a period while i was on it so i don't know what to expect! For the last week my lower back has been aching and my breasts are feeling sore! Had unprotected sex a lot in the last month as we really want another baby ASAP!
Any advice?!

Hello everybody!
I am glad to read all your stories are similar to mine, I had my coil removed 1st of feb, bled really heavy 3 days later passing cloths etc, even got medicine to keep me from bleeding so heavy. I actually thought that my normal period started 8 feb as i bled normal for a week and it felt like a period. Since then I have not had a period yet I have 3 neg pregnancy tests.......I am now just waiting, maybe my cycle is a bit messed up?? xx

Hi (1st time using this site)

i had my IUD removed on March 9, because we want another baby. my doctor told me we can start trying right away (and we did). and now a week later i find myself feeling nausea, sore breast, light headed and just today i noticed stretch marks on my boobs (that were not there before). could i already be pregnant!? im trying not to think about it too much but it is driving me crazy!!!

oh and like many of you i also had bleeding for a few days after i had my IUD removed, but went away within 3 days.

I had my Mirena (IUD) removed on Feb. 3rd, 2010 and started my PMS on Feb. 6th, 2010 lasted up to five days and I haven't started since funny huh. We are all in the same boat Mirena is really tricky! Well I took 4 PT's & all neg. So I'm just waiting a month more because I had spoke to my OB/GYN and she said give it a  month more if not come into the office. So we will see happens till then!

Well I'm back I started my PMS as of April 1st and now I ain't worried because I was like as I pregnant or not. My PMS is so strong and heavy flowing that my cramping is so bad. Last night I couldn't sleep because of the heavy flow and the bad cramping. Well all this explains my breakouts (that I never had), bloating, crankiness, migraine headaches, and sore breast. Thank God it my PMS is back because I was thinking was wrong with me since I had not started. So just expect the worst when you start and have plenty of pads because it's heavy flow..TTYL

Hi All,

I have never done anything like this before but I am so worried. I had Mirena removed in December the 16th if I can remember correctly after having it for 9 months. I bleed up until 12/24. In January I had bleeding that started on the 21st and lasted 6 days so I was assuming that would be my regular cycle time. I had a biopsy in February believe it was the 10th which caused me to bleed for 3 days, again assuming this was cycle. Now the entire month of March has passed with no AF. I have pregnancy symptoms but all hpt's are coming up negative. Finally today I went to the Dr. for blood test but I am feeling really down and negative due to the multiple negative HPT results! Who would have ever thought it would be so hard? I have two kids and neither were planned. Now that I am planning NOTHING! Will update once I get blood test results tomorrow!
