Mirena HELP!!

[JinglesSNC]

I have Mirena, and have had it for 2 years now. Recently, my period came 8 days before it normally comes and now I am bleeding (again) two weeks later. What does this sound like?

I have had Mirena since January, and I still spot every 3-6 weeks sometimes for a few days and sometimes for up to 2 weeks.  It's progresively lightening and widening in the time apart between "cycles" It could be fluctuations in your body's own natural hormone production in conjunction with the IUD hormones being released that is causing the changes in your cycle, I'm not really sure.  Maybe call your GYN?

I had my IUD (Mirena) inserted on June 13, 2007 after I had my son and had it removed on July 2, 2009, it took me 39 days before I got my first period, and I know some women who it's taken 90+ days to receive their first period. Your body's just trying to get back to normal, I know how frustrating it can be while your sitting in lingo, not sure weather your pregnant or when your first period will show up, but try to be patient it will happen when the time is right! Also your body will play tricks on you after the removal that make you think that your pregnant, I myself went through these, and boy are they not fun, especially since period and pregnancy symptoms are so similar. Most women will agree that the bleeding after removal is just removal bleeding not a period. Also I know a very few women who have gotten pregnant right away after removal, so anything is possible, but most Dr's will advise you to wait at least one cycle so that your uterus lining is thick to hold the baby. It took me almost 7 months till I finally got my BFP (Big Fat Positive). Also I would start taking prenatal vitamins ASAP, my Dr told me to start taking them 3 months prior to conceiving to make sure that your body is ready to go. I am currently 30 weeks and 1 day pregnant with a healthy baby boy. Good luck and hope this helps!

September 2, 2009 ~ Positive OPK ~ 16 days after AF
September 13-20, 2009 ~ AF, didn't use OPK's this month
October 15-22, 2009 ~ AF, didn't use OPK's this month
November 18-25, 2009 ~ AF, didn't use OPK's this month
