Hi, I had mirena inserted June 5th, a couple days later major cramping and bleeding. I felt sick, nausea and flu like symptoms- no fever. I thought I would hang tight and be tough in hope that the symptoms would dispate and I would be period free and baby free for 5 years. Well, the cramps lightened up but the bleeding never did. Sometimes it would slow down then in the middle of the night I'd wake up with the sheets ruined. Mentally I've been slowly going down hill, getting increasingly irratatable, sad, and just moody. I couldn't stand bleeding non stop and having a foreign thing inside my body. My husband and I haven't been intimate since it's been in. I had mirena taken out Friday July 18th and Saturday I started heavy bleeding with clots. I had to get super plus tampons and overnight pads just to walk around. Normally I have heavy periods so I'm not concerned that I'm over bleeding but this just adds to the nasty list of side effects of mirena. Not to mention I'm still breastfeeding my now 4month old son and was always looking forward to a period free several months because of the breastfeeding. I hope I didn't pass anything off to him thru the milk, they say it's "safe" for breastfeeding mom's but I wonder with all these crazy side effects. It's out and I will not put anything in my body again.
