Mirena Removal & Post-Removal Concerns: What to Expect


Question
I had mirena placed on June 7, 2011 after my sons birth. On March 27, 2012 it had started to fall out, and it was practically all the way out so I pulled it the rest of the way out. I haven't had any removal bleeding, or even a period. It's been over a month since it fell out and I'm growing concerned about not having a period. I thought I could have been pregnant, but I went to the doctors and had a urine test and a blood test and both came back negative. The last time I had a period was July 2010 (I found out I was pregnant in October 2010, but concieved in August). I also bled after my sons birth, and when the mirena was inserted. Never had a period while on the mirena. So I am really confused! Please help me! Thank you!!!

Answer
Dear Brittany,

I don't usually advise for the mirena. But I didn't know that you don't have a period on it. Plesae ask your doctor for more medical advice. When you went to get the pregnancy test, did you ask your doctor about a period. Let me know what happens. Oh, and if you need a free pregnancy test, you can contact a free pregnancy resource center in your area. http://www.optionline.org or http://www.heartbeatservices.org

Hope to hear from you soon.
