I had my mirena placed about 11 months ago. Through most of the time i have had the mirena i spot all the time. About 2 months ago, I was using the bathroom and after i peed i look down and the water was completely red. I wiped to see where all that blood came from and it was coming from where i thought. The blood was bright red. which this was not normal for me!...I thought maybe i was having a miscarriage and just never knew i was pregnant. I went to the doctor and they said it was just my period and there was no problems with the Mirena. I ,in my gut, think that was complete BS!....I know how my body has been all 11 months! It was never this bright red before....sorry ladies if i am getting too descriptive!!....And not to mention recently, every time i have sex with my boyfriend i spot all over again. Is that normal?! Anybody else have that problem with spotting after sex?! My acne is also quite bad....I have pimples in places i have never gotten them before....on my neck....all over my face. I haven't had pimples this bad since high school

Ι had put mirena 10 days before because i have heavy periods. I am 38 old.


When i asked my doctor he said to me that has no side effects.

I read from the internet the opinions of many womens for all these side effects of the product and I am afraid now.


My weight gain 2 kilos 1 week and I have also pain cramps and acne.


YOU HAVE ALSO SIDE EFFECTS OR NOT;

THANKS

Now that you mention it, I bled after intercourse with my husband recently also. I also had cramping and pain. The bright red you're talking about I noticed this past summer.

That is actually what brought me to this site. I had mirena put in 7 months ago. More times than not I bleed after sex. Also my period started 3 weeks ago and has not let up except for the last week its been lighter or itll stop for a day then return. Does anyone know if this is dangerous? also i recently had to go and have it checked by my doctor because I could not feel my strings. Turns out they were "sucked up into" my cirvix. I was afraid to ask but does anyone know how it is removed when that happens?
