First period on my IUD

Katelyn

Good morning!

I had Skyla put in about a year and a half ago, after being on the depo shot for five years. I haven’t had a period in six years, and yesterday I unexpectedly started bleeding and cramping. I had an ultrasound to make sure my IUD is still in place and i don’t have any cysts, and my doctor thinks this is just my first period after the depo has finally wore off. Has anyone else experienced something similar? I just have no idea what to expect right now.
