I've had mirena in me for almost 3 months.and am now realizing where my constant back and knee pain is coming from. When I went in, I asked my doctor for the copper IUD w. no hormones, my sister has it and has had no problems, and he immediately recommended the Mirena. He said he had concerns with the copper IUD w heavy bleeding and that Mirena was safe. It felt forceful, I wonder what kind of kickback these doctors are getting for inserting it. I also had very heavy bleeding for the first 10 dys and nothing since. I feel bloated occasionally and definitely can relate to the watery discharge, I though i peed my pants:) I also feel confused often. I am currently breastfeeding and feel bad for not doing my research before having this inserted. I'm going to supplement until this thing is out. Good luck everyone. I'm glad there's a way we can educate each other on these things, since it seems our doctors aren't. thanks.

i can relate to you same thing with me i got the mirena but in aug 4th and aug 14th taken right out, the non stop bleeding and cramping, and when i would walk up and down the steps my knees would have this pain to it i was going through moods sad, happy, angry. started getting back pain, and headaches and i would get confused so easily... the doctors told me none of this was from the mirena but funny b/c when i got it removed i had alot of energy my knees no longer hurt, i still have cramps though and the bleeding is heavy but i'm use to heavy pierods... but i would not reccomend this to anyone and i wish i found this website b4 i got it put in.
