I had mine fitted back in July of 2006. My side effects where severe cramping after sex, and sometime for no reason at all. I was disappointed that instead of my period getting lighter, it mostly stayed the same and was longer(7 - 14 days). After of putting up with this for a few years I got it removed April 14 2009. It was unpleasant and the cramping was pretty painful afterwards. The day after I started my second period (I just had it the week before removal). I had heavy bleeding for four days. I thought I was done, but then five days later I got another period that has yet to stop. Is this normal? My doctor said that it would be crazy until my body adjust. But this is too crazy! Has anyone else had this happened after their removal....I feel so drained.

To me and what I've experienced since I've had mine out it does not seem normal. My nurse practicaner said my period should return in about 6 weeks after removal and it did. I did have some bleeding for a couple of days two times in the 1st two weeks after removal then nothing until 6 weeks post removal and I had my normal period for 5-7 days. I've just started my second period at a 26 day cycle. Maybe you should talk w/ your ob/gyn. Good luck.
