Mirena Coil - Suddenly Having Crazy Hormones And Bleeding
Oct 15, 2015
I've had the mirena coil for just under 2 years. After the initial bleeding my periods more or less stopped I just had the odd light period every few months or so. However, the last 2 month my hormones have been all over the show. Some things are TMI to say on here but I had a light period for about 3 days and then 2 weeks later I came on again and it's now day 9 or 10 of bleeding, it is only light but my boobs have been sore for weeks and there's no signs of it stopping. My coil is still in place so no worries about it being dislodged. I was just wondering if anyone else had been fine with the mirena and then suddenly having crazy hormones and bleeding etc.

i had a sergical abortion march 23, 2011. i had intercorse the very next day, and almost everyday since. on the one month anniversary of my abortion, i started to get some intense cramping and VERY light pink spotting, the cramps are so bad that i want to throw up from the pain. the spotting comes and goes same with the cramps. im wondering if this is normal? also could this mean that im pregnant again.. or if its just what happens after an abortion. i also have a copper IUD that the doctor put in right after my abortion. i was told that after the IUD was put in my period would be a lot more heavy and the cramps would be really bad as well. ive gotten the cramps but like i said very light bleeding.

I had the copper coil fitted on 27/4/16. That went well, took a little while to insert because apparently I have a titled uterus lol (I've had two children) not much pain afterwards was just a little light headed. Didn't really bleed was more very very little spitting which stopped after about 3 days.
Last Friday I started bleeding wasn't too sure if it's my actual period or bleeding like expected since having it fitted, I'm still bleeding to this day. Is this normal? Could this be my period or bleeding due to the coil? It seems a little heavier than usual & defiantly lasting longer my periods usually last around 4/5 days.

I'm going to have a coil inserted, but I'm not sure which to have, I leaning more towards the hormonal/Mirena/IUS coil but can I have that inserted if I'm not on my period?
Also with the copper coil, I've heard that the periods can get heavier, how long do they last for? Does it slowly get better at all?
And any tips before I go to the doctors on what I should prepare myself for? What the entire procedure is like? I know all these websites have talked through it but from people's own point of view, what's the experience like?

I've suffered with depression on and off for years but this past year has been like a rollercoaster. I'm 53 and peri menopausal. I'm on antidepressants anyway and also have gels to rub in from the gynecologist. Had the mirena coil fitted but it made me feel worse so had it taken out.

I've a 4cms simple ovarian cyst, went to hospital yesterday and doctor has booked me in for a D&C to take place in August. She was also pushing for me to get the Mirena coil. I guess what I'm really wondering is whether periods reduce in intensity after a D&C without me having to get the Mirena coil fitted.

Long story short I had really bad periods with the copper coil so I had it replaced with the mirena coil in December. However although my periods are now not as heavy or painful, they are still painful and last about 10 days.
My main problem with the mirena is that every month before my period I seem to get the most awful burning/painful sensation all around my vulva, especially after sex. It is so painful and I have been going through thrush treatments and bacterial vaginosis treatments every month. After my period the problem seems to lessen. But is still there. I have been tested for thrush and UTI but do not have it. Nothing helps. And doctors say there can be no connection between this and the mirena.
Also during sex, and this might be gross, sometimes I gush liquid out and although my partner likes it I definitely don't?
just wondered if anyone else has had the same issues? I don't know what to do my only option is to go back to the copper coil

i'm 45 and just had the hormone mirena coil fitted a few days ago due to having heavy and twice monthly periods for over a year painful as well. the reason i chose the coil is that i wanted to try anything other than medication-tablets which i am on a few too many,and for heavy bleeding too. side effects i was having with my periods are (Irritation at anything, sex between me and my partner were NON Existent-still feeling like this, argumentative, but since having the coil fitted i have feel CALM, me and my partner are trying to get back on track with everything but communication failed and i felt annoyed-irritated but calmer which i haven't felt in a long time... I would like to know if weight is an issue with the coil please let me if this part of hormone coil and if there's any relaxation techniques to help with my mood swings etc.

I had the mirena coil fitted four weeks ago to help my periods, the first two weels were fine, then I started to notice I needed to go to the toilet more frequently.It got worse and had bad discomfort in my bladder and my urethra , my doctor treated my for a urine infection, but it didn't clear it up. I started looking online and found out that the progesterone in the coil can irritate the bladder and cause interstitial cystitis, the doctor didn't have a clue so ....

I went to see my doctor today about heavy and painful periods, and I had asked her is there anything apart from the contraceptive pill that she could give me for it. She said she recommended the Mirena Coil, I said that my sister in law has said that she got it put in and she bled for 3 months solid. I told her I'd have a think about it, and she told me to look up this website, and read all these comments and decide for myself. After reading everyone's comments, I can safely say, that I am not now or ever intending to get the Mirena Coil inserted because am wanting to reduce my flow and every1 has said that it has just made it worse.

I was hit by a drunk driver November 2013 on my motorcycle. I had a lot of injuries. My spleen ruptured (shattered) but they left it in. I have a lot of memory loss till this day and some things I wasn't aware of. Long story short I went to the chiropractor 6-19-15 and I got chest X-rays done and the doctor noticed a metal like wire in my body which I was unaware of. Come to find out I had a metal coil placed in my vessel to help cauterize the bleeding from the spleen. My question is that no one can seem to answer for me is, should that coil of been removed or is it in me permanently? I've been told yes and no...

I got the Mirena IUD inserted 16 days ago during the last couple days of my placebo pills from Ortho Tri Cyclen. I have been spotting ever since and it's taken a major toll on my sex life and it's driving me crazy. I talked to my doctor about it a few days ago and she said that this is normal but that i can try taking the pill again in a month or so if it doesn't go away. Then three days ago I just got so fed up with spotting that I started a pack of my birth control just to see if that helps anything. Now the spotting is less but I'm wondering if anyone has any positive experience with NOT bleeding for 2 months straight? Everything I read online is just a Mirena horror story but I need some positive experience stories or advice. I understand this is "normal" but it still sucks.

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.

I've been taking propranolol since the end of March - just 10 mg per day and then I've been taking 50mg sertraline per day for 3 weeks. I had been complaining of awful neck pains and general muscle aches but today, I forgot to take my propranolol and the aches and pains haven't been there. Has anyone else stopped taking propranolol suddenly? Can this have a bad reaction as I was on such a low dose?
I have been getting hot/warm sensations inside around my chest and different parts of my body for the past couple of days also, is this a part of the sertraline effects?

I am a 54 year old female who has suffered from migraines most of my adult life. Smells have been a trigger for them. Lately I smell things no one else does and always followed by a migraine.

I'd been taking 25mg of Sertraline every day for two years for depression. My doctor and I were planning to try to wean me off this summer. But I moved, and so I found a new doctor. However, this one wanted to keep me on the meds and increased my dose. I've been taking 50mg once a day for about two months. But now the new doctor wants me to switch to Wellbutrin. He says I can stop the Sertraline immediately and switch over because I'm on such a low dose. But I'm wondering if that's a good idea. My original doctor had wanted to wean me off the 25mg, and I've noticed that I get really weepy if I miss a dose accidentally.

I've had a sore throat, and an on and off fever for four days.
At one point it got to 102 degrees, but I took fever reducer and a cold bath, and it quickly went away.
And while my fever has come back several times, it hasn't gone over 100.8 since.
So far I hadn't had any stomach pain and never felt dizzy or nauseated, until suddenly just now after eating some tomato soup, I got light headed and puked like a quart of bile, but not my food.
Now My ears burn and they trickled a little bit of clear sticky liquid [pretty sure it was bile], and everything looks a little blurry because my eyes won't stop watering.
I'm pretty sure my fever's gone, but I can't balance well enough to make my way to the thermometer to check for certain.

A black spot appeared on the penis shaft over the time period of 2 months after my wedding or having sex for the first time.
Along with the black dot, veins at the penis shaft appeared suddenly… it changed the appearance of it even if is not erected.
