Birth Control :: Mirena (IUD) Always Had Troubles

I already had my baby almost 10 months ago. I got the mirena for my birth control. Ever since I got it, I think I've been having troubles. If you have or have had it did you have troubles with it and if so what were they?

Birth Control :: Reliability Of Mirena IUD?

I've had the Mirena IUD since October last year and up until now my boyfriend and I have been using condoms as a second form of birth control. We are both monogamous and have been tested for STDs and STIs so I was wondering if not using a condom and relying 100% on the Mirena for preventing unwanted pregnancies was a option?

Birth Control :: I Think Mirena (IUD) Has Fallen Out

I was on mirena for 4 years I recently think it had fallen out... I had two periods in a row and that never happened while I was on it so I assumed it did... Anyways a long story short I had gotten two pregnancy tests cuz I figured it wouldn't hurt to see if I was pregnant after that and it had taken a while for it to become positive I now know about the evaporation lines that can come and the rest of the pregnancy tests I took were negative, I had a friend say this happened to her while she was pregnant with her triplets... Any suggestions why that would be? I had another friend said that happened to her too...

Birth Control :: Removed Mirena Myself

I removed my Mirena IUD on Monday night. I hadn't had a period at all since i had it in last year. i had a couple days of cramping but that has seemed to be gone. Last night I started having light but thick brown discharge. Is this normal? What signs of a problem Should I watch for? I did it but then I've been worried because I read it can cause problems if taken out by myself. If there was no bleeding at the time I didn't cause any damage did I? When should u expect a period?

Birth Control :: Mirena IUD - Side Effects?

I'm getting the Mirena in a week or 2. They didn't really explain much since it's pretty much the only choice of birth control I have. They only told me that my period could stop and it was good for 5 years. what are the side effects?

Birth Control :: Mirena (IUD) Fell Out Today

I am very concerned and confused because my mirena fell out today. I am having symptoms of pregnancy. I didn't think that was possible

Birth Control :: Mirena (IUD) - Loss Of Libido

My gf went to have her Mirena replaced by a new on in December 2014. She had no issues during the first one. The first one had grown stuck and it was a VERY painful experience to remove it.

After having the new one fitted, its been more than a year now where she has ZERO interest in sex. Before that she was normally the one initiating it at least once a day! Now we've barely had any sex in a year.

So after much convincing and offering to pay for a follow up from my side, she went back to the OBGYN in September. He did a bunch of tests and checks and says everything is normal, the Mirena can't possibly cause it. I just have a hard time believing its not the Mirena as the problems started exactly when the new one was fitted.

For the sake of completeness I should mention that during her checkup the OB GYN picked up that she has high blood pressure and cholesterol. He referred the results to her GP who now has her on medication and the matter seems to be under control, except that she's fainted twice in 4 months from low BP.

Should we spend the money on seeing another OBGYN for a second opinion, or is the first guy correct that it can't possibly be that? My idea is to remove the damn thing and see what happens for a few months, if things do improve I will consider getting a vasectomy. Opinions?

Birth Control :: Mirena IUD Is Perforating My Uterus

During a recent bowel operation the surgeon noticed that my mirena IUD was perforating my uterus.

He took pictures and phoned a gynaecologist during the operation to see if he should repair it. She advised him not to and to tell me to visit a gyny when feeling able to. I had experienced pinching and soreness on the right side prior to the bowel operation but a cause had not been found until the perforation had been noticed by the surgeon. I still feel this pain/pinching.

I have an appointment with a gyny in a few weeks and have requested my medical records showing the perforated uterus from the hospital. Everything is moving slowly (cannot get a quicker appointment and it takes weeks to get the medical records from the hospital).

My concern is whether I am at risk of an organ perforation while I'm waiting for this appointment? Should I be going to A&E?

Birth Control :: Mirena For 2 Years And Now Unable To Get Pregnant

Getting pregnant was never a problem for me. Simple, he'd look at me, and bam I have two children. That is until I had the Mirena (5yr) left it in for 7 yrs due to no insurance at that time. I am now 31 and had the mirena out for over a year with no luck getting pregnant. There are times I feel like I am pregnant I get sore breasts, cramping but then I start my period. This month however I am having the same symptoms and my period is late. I knew I was ovulating BC of the egg white like discharge(sorry if tmi)that was about 14 days ago I took a test this morning and result was negative. Maybe i don't understand how all this works completely lol idk but my periods are either at the end of the month or the first of the month. There's no way i could be having symptoms of pregnancy this early and its just my period warning sign. I'm starting to think that leaving the mirena in for 2 years over the time it was supposed to come out and not having periods in 7 years has done damage to my body.

Birth Control :: Mirena (IUD) Removed - Pelvic And Sex Pain

After a year of pelvic pain and pain during sex I had my mirena removed today. I had one ultrasound done at my gp doctors office, a year ago when the pain during sex started,that stated my iud was seen within my endometrium and extending into my lower uterine segment. My gp, that obvious isn't familiar with iuds at all, wasn't sure whether or not this meant it was embedded. So I went to my gyno who did an ultrasound and said it was in place. I've had 4 ultrasound showing small cyst over the past year but nothing to really explain my pelvic pain. My gyno has been suspects endometriosis. Today I visited my gyno again with increasing pelvic pain and pain during sex mainly focusing on my left side. I had an ultrasound that showed 4 small functional cyst on my left side and one on my right but no real cause for the pain. So I asked to have my iud removed because I feel like I have to eliminate that as a possible cause before I could ever consider laparoscopy to check for endo.

The removal hurt. I hand multiple sharp pains and I felt popping while he was pulling my strings but it did come out. After ward the iud had clear-yellowish stringy tissue attached to the top and bottom of the middle cylinder of the iud. Does this sound like it was slightly embedded or is it normal. And if it does sound like it was slightly embedded is there anything I should watch out for or suspect post-removal?

Birth Control :: Sudden Bleeding With 2nd Mirena (IUD) After A Year

I'm on my 2nd Mirena coil. I had my 1st one placed 5 years ago. I had a solid 6 month period widen my first was placed and have not had one since. My 2nd one was placed a little less than a year ago. I didn't even spot.

Today out of nowhere with no warnings, I started bleeding rather heavy and it's bright red. It's nothing like my cycles were prior to Mirena.

I did take a pregnancy test and ruled that out.

Birth Control :: Depo-provera Side Effects - Nausea, Headaches, Cramping

I was on the Birth control shot for 9 months. I was supposed to go in between Aug 11th-Aug 17th. I Decided not to go because I had every side effect possible. After I got off of it I have been bleeding. It's not the same everyday some days it spotting but most are like a light period. I also get bad cramping on some days. I have experienced nausea, headaches, cramping. It is now September 24th. I have been having these problems for over a month now. Anyone have the same problem? And if so is there any way of knowing when this will go away? Or anything to make it at least more comfy to get by it all?

Birth Control :: Spotting Instead Of Normal Menstruation

I have spotting instead of my normal menstruation but i'm taking a contraceptive pill and it's my first time,is it because of the pill i'm taking or what?

Mirena IUD :: Cramping And Pain - Should Removed?

I am 21 years old and I have been on birth control since I was a teen. I started out on the pill because I was experiencing very bad cramping that resulted in me missing many days of school per month. The pill worked fine for about four years but then I started getting bad cramps all over again. I went to my doctor and he prescribed a different birth control pill for me but that pill,and every other pill they put me on after that, made me nauseous and sick. I decided to stop taking birth control all together and just just used condoms but my cramps where just to unbearable and my cycles became long (i'm talking like two weeks, heavy flow). So after about a year of not being on birth control I went to a new obgyn who suggested I try the nuvaring. Well the NuvaRing didn't work either. First I had burning inside my vagina, then I had crazy liquid like discharge and lastly I was nauseous every morning. But, I only had it in for a couple of days, so I don't know if I actually gave it enough time to work properly. Soon after I received a lot of pressure from my mother to get the iud because her worst fear in the world is for me to get pregnant and I just moved far away from home so she worries a lot. I went to my doctor while on my period to get the Mirena put in, he tried to talk me out of it but I refused. He asked did I want to try the shot or the implant but I was reluctant to the shot because of the associated weight gain and I didn't want the implant because my mother had problems with it. Getting the Mirena put in was so painful, I guess since I have never been pregnant but it wasn't what people described. I literally thought I was going to die for about two days. I ended up become really dehydrated and lost my appetite for about a week. I have had the IUD in for a little over a month now but I've have issues. Issue #1, I cramp almost everyday. The cramping isn't as long as regular period cramping but it's equally as painful. It feels like someone is stabbing me in my right side for about 10-15mins. I went to my doctor after the first week to see if it was still in the right place and he determined that it was and I just had bad luck. Issue #2: I have been spotting for about two weeks now. Issue #3, The string poked my spouse for the first time today and I wasn't very happy. I'm very angry and stressed out. I feel like this is totally bull because I am going through the same stuff I was going though before I got the IUD. I was reading online about how the cramps should go away after about six months but what about the strings? I don't want this to ruin my sex life but then again I don't need any unexpected pregnancy right now. Some women have said that cutting the string helps but I am fearful that the IUD will get lost. I am so scared and don't know what to do. I know for sure that I don't want kids right now but I don't want this thing ruining my chances of ever having children. I need some advice, Please Help. I want to know if I should get the IUD taken out and if so, should I try another form of birth control like the shot or the implant? Or should I give the Mirena a couple more months? I've noticed that the stings seems shorter since my period stopped. Could that be caused by my period? I'm thinking that maybe the strings will become longer and my spouse won't feel them anymore. I don't know what to do.

Contraception :: Mirena (IUD) Cramping And Stomach Cramps

I had a mirena coil inserted nearly 3 weeks ago. I had some bad stomach cramps one night with some reasonable bleeding for a couple of days afterwards. This then stopped about 7 days after insertion.

As I stopped bleeding, 8 days after insertion, me and my boyfriend decided to have sex. I was apprehensive but there was no issues and have been no issues since.

One thing I have got though, is pink discharge. It's been on and off since last Monday with occasional drops of browny coloured blood when I go to the toilet which is when I notice the discharge mostly, although sometimes it is in my underwear.
