Brown discharge?

Question

Hi all,
Got my mirena inserted dec 7 and am getting brown discharge? Is it just old blood finally coming through?
TIA 🙈

Answer

Unfortunately, with mirena, brown and even stringy discharge is very common. It’s gross but it is just old blood. Because mirena can cause irregular periods, some blood doesn’t shed when a monthly period should be shedding the uterine lining. Try to keep it clean down there but don’t stick things in you unless necessary (like tampons) because that can irritate you and lead to infection.

Answer

When I got my iud (paragard) I had spotting and brown discharge for around a month, it's normal. I don't think it's neccisarily old blood, just blood from ur body getting used to the iud
