After reading these posts and comparing my symptoms, I had my Mirena taken out on august 10th. I did have a very heavy period for a week. It looked like it was letting up, then the flow and clots increased. I felt so much better after the period...less bloated, cleaner, a little refreshed. I'm looking forward to all those bad symptoms to disappear. Also, the nurse who took mine out didn't deny my complaints, but instead nodded and smiled in agreement.
I had mine taken out last Monday. I started bleeding severely on Wednesday. It is now Monday again and I am still bleeding huge clots and quite often. I have only bleed this much when I had a miscarriage several years ago. I have a call in to the dr now. I hope this doesn't last much longer. I am anemic and felt very weak yesterday, so I've had to take extra iron pills. I really hope this stops soon. I have 4 kids to take care of. I hated this IUD!! It has made my life miserable.
