http://www.medications.com/effect/view/31533 Has anyone had extreme heavy bleeding/clots after having the Mirena removed? This is day 3. The last time I had such heavy bleeding I had just had my son. When do you start to worry about the bleeding? Thu, 19 Jun 2008 10:07:48 -0400 http://www.medications.com/effect/view/31533?item=9290 Don't worry yet...this is normal after the removal. I had mine removed May 6th, and 2 days later started my 1st period. Very heavy with large clots and lasted about 5 days. Then I had a second period less than a week later, again lasting for about 5 days http://www.medications.com/effect/view/31533?item=9290 Thu, 19 Jun 2008 14:53:04 -0400 http://www.medications.com/effect/view/31533?item=9308 Yep. Heavy bleeding and big clots. I think it's a good thing. Ridding your body of a lot of Mirena crap. http://www.medications.com/effect/view/31533?item=9308 Thu, 19 Jun 2008 14:53:31 -0400 http://www.medications.com/effect/view/31533?item=9309 Oh- I was told nto to worry unless you're soaking through a pad or tampon every hour. http://www.medications.com/effect/view/31533?item=9309 Thu, 10 Jul 2008 03:38:36 -0400 http://www.medications.com/effect/view/31533?item=9945 I had the same problem. Had mine removed over two weeks ago and except for a couple of odd days where it was light and not noticeable, I have bled heavily and experienced huge clots (alomst as big as the palm of my hand). I am SO hoping this bleeding will http://www.medications.com/effect/view/31533?item=9945 Tue, 15 Jul 2008 21:30:27 -0400 http://www.medications.com/effect/view/31533?item=10183 I had a severe problem. I had mine taken out 7-2-08. By 7-10-08 I was bleeding through an OVERNIGHT pad every hour. Went to ER on friday, was released on Premarin and iron pills for blood loss. By Saturday, I was extremely pale, nauseous, and weak. Went ba http://www.medications.com/effect/view/31533?item=10183 Fri, 08 Aug 2008 23:01:03 -0400 http://www.medications.com/effect/view/31533?item=10901 I hate to say it but I am so happy to find this thread. I had my Mirena removed 9 days ago and have been experiencing very heavy bleeding with large clots since then (and I had been bleeding with my period for 9 days prior to that.) I am counting the min http://www.medications.com/effect/view/31533?item=10901 Mon, 12 Jan 2009 05:10:41 -0500 http://www.medications.com/effect/view/31533?item=15915 On the one hand, it's great to feel that I'm not alone, but on the other it's really scary to read about all these experiences, especially #10183... I had my mirena removed a week ago (after having had it without any major side effects for a year and a hal http://www.medications.com/effect/view/31533?item=15915 Thu, 22 Jan 2009 08:57:24 -0500 http://www.medications.com/effect/view/31533?item=16273 I wish I had never had the Mirena inserted. It is a complete nightmare! I had it inserted on Thursday and removed on the following Tuesday. My mind is at ease knowing that is is out of me, but the bleeding is horrifying... The first day it was removed I e http://www.medications.com/effect/view/31533?item=16273 Mon, 02 Mar 2009 05:53:35 -0500 http://www.medications.com/effect/view/31533?item=17595 I am so glad I have found this site, I had the Mirena removed about 4 weeks ago, had short heavy bleeding for a few days 3 days later. Now, though 4 weeks later I am having the period from hell. As somebody else put it here like a fountain, I am going http://www.medications.com/effect/view/31533?item=17595 Tue, 07 Apr 2009 16:08:26 -0400 http://www.medications.com/effect/view/31533?item=18694 I had my mirena removed after 3 years with no periods but very sore breasts and absolutely evil migraines. I had it removed so that I can try for a baby., I had no problem after removal and shortly after had a normal period - 4 days quite normal bleeding http://www.medications.com/effect/view/31533?item=18694 Thu, 09 Apr 2009 15:10:03 -0400 http://www.medications.com/effect/view/31533?item=18747 I had my Mirena removed two days ago...this morning I was at work and I suddently felt blood gushing out. I ran to the bathroom and had huge clots and profuse bleeding. It freaked me out...thank goodness I was able to get a pad AND a tampon or I would ha http://www.medications.com/effect/view/31533?item=18747 Fri, 01 May 2009 15:49:17 -0400 http://www.medications.com/effect/view/31533?item=19414 Yea I got mine removed on monday and I was so scared last night when I had so much blood soaked the pad and my clothes so quickly! I'm so happy to have that thing out and I'm so surprised how many people have the same side effect. http://www.medications.com/effect/view/31533?item=19414 Sat, 02 May 2009 22:05:04 -0400 http://www.medications.com/effect/view/31533?item=19446 Wow.... I am in a book group with several ob/gyn drs and NPs as well as the RNs that work with them. They sang the praises for Mirena for months before I decided to trade in my Paragard for the Mirena. I was sold on the idea that it would help to reduce http://www.medications.com/effect/view/31533?item=19446 Mon, 15 Jun 2009 21:03:57 -0400 http://www.medications.com/effect/view/31533?item=20649 After back to back pregnancies with my youngest being born November 23, 2008 my obgyn recommended Mirena due to it having the "least amount of side effects" according to her. I gladly had it inserted on December 22, 2008. Insertion was painful but I though http://www.medications.com/effect/view/31533?item=20649 Tue, 23 Jun 2009 12:39:51 -0400 http://www.medications.com/effect/view/31533?item=20883 I have nothing good to say of my Mirena experience. I had mine placed 2 months after the birth of my daughter (painlessly). However, within a few days, I started bleeding and didn't stop for 8 months. Even after being placed on ADDITIONAL hormones to re http://www.medications.com/effect/view/31533?item=20883 Thu, 25 Jun 2009 04:14:33 -0400 http://www.medications.com/effect/view/31533?item=20948 Wow, I googled mirena removal and clotting just in case there was anything out there, never guessing it was "normal." I had my Mirena removed last Wednesday, got my "period" on Friday, and have been horrified at the heavy flow and scary large clots and tis http://www.medications.com/effect/view/31533?item=20948 Sun, 28 Jun 2009 09:46:57 -0400 http://www.medications.com/effect/view/31533?item=21005 I'm glad I found women who have had the same experience I'm having right now. I had my Mirena taken out 6/24 and the morning of 6/27 I got out of bed and had to run to the bathroom. I was gushing blood which went everywhere, the carpet, the bathroom floor http://www.medications.com/effect/view/31533?item=21005
