No Period on IUD?

Question

How many people with hormonal IUDs aren't actually getting their periods anymore? Like how common is that? Because I haven't had mine since the first few days of June, and I'm wondering if I should be worried.

Answer

I'm now surprised when I *do* get my period. Most months I don't even spot and I flow maybe one day per six months.

My periods used to be epically heavy. Back in high school I soaked through super plus tampons AND the pads underneath in an hour. My cramps lasted days and I got stabs of pain that stopped me in my tracks.

It's been over 5 years now and I think this may be the best-working medical-related thing I ever did.

Answer

I have the mirena for the past 4 yrs. I was an unfortunate one who still gets their period. My doctor said its actually normal for most to not get it. How long have you had it?

Answer

I haven't had a period in like 8 months I just get light bleeding that lasts about a day or 2 every couple weeks

Answer

I started noticing I get a period every other month. it's weird because I don't think of it until I get my period, when I do it's spotting to a light flow for about a week. I got freaked the first time I missed it and took a pregnancy test but it's normal to me now. however sometimes I take a test to ease my mind.

Answer

I haven't bled since mid June. 
 I love my Mirena

Answer

It's normal. It happens.

Answer

My first mirena, since I removed my first one to become pregnant, I did not have my menstrual cycle at all and I had it for 3 years. After I had my daughter I decided to get back on the mirena and this time around I get my menstrual every month, but it tends to be light and for about 4 days. I get worse cramping now though, it feels like contractions. Side note: I have not gotten my menstrual since I had to take some antibiotic for a yeast infection in June. I had bloody clear discharge after taking the antibiotic for about 4 days and since then I  haven't had my period. Might be due to college stress or maybe not.

Answer

I didn't get it. I have had it for five years now and just started getting periods and massive cramping again. But for about 4 years I didn't get it, first year some spotting until it went away.
