9 days late on MIRENA?

Question

UPDATE ON A NEW POST!! 
Hello to whoever reads this. 
I need your help.. 
I’ve been on Mirena (IUD) for 10 months now and I’ve never missed a period since on it. My period has been irregular unfortunately but it has been this way since I had my 1 almost 2 year old. 
Last month I’ve been feeling SO PREGNANT but since it’s hormonal those are the side effects. I did get my period on the 10th of December and it was (sorry if it’s TMI) a medium flow until it left the building. 
This month January I was expecting it around the same week I had last gotten my period and It never showed. I did spot!! For 3 days and it was only a wipe of blood I would go pee and wipe, oh look spotting, then go again after 2 hours and nothing for the rest of the day carrying over the 3 day period. Until the 4th day! I spotted the most disgusting dark brown substance in my underwear, I’ve never seen anything like it. I did take pictures but since its too TMI some might get the picture and hope y’all can help me!! I’m new to the IUD world. 
Anyway I’m not finished.. 😓
On the 15th I had this sharp upper pain in the middle of my abdomen and the pain went down to my pelvic area and I swear with that pain I felt my IUD. This pain lasted between 3-6 mins and if I walked it attacked me with more pain until I laid on my left side it happened twice that night.
 I know miss Mirena is in the correct place, my strings are coiled up and I can feel the hard part of the IUD shape. I really don’t know if that’s what I’m suppose to feel or not but when I couldn’t feel the strings I panicked and double checked then felt the hard part and slowly felt the strings coiled together hiding. 
Help me ☹️ any pro advice from those ladies with IUD’s ? All are welcomed! 
Share any experiences if you can’t help, I’d love to hear your IUD encounters.

Answer

I’ve had 2 different Mirena IUDs in the past 7 years. The first one fell out on its own 3 years in, and I’m almost 3 years in with the one I have now. My period was super irregular after my first child but when I’m on the Mirena I have almost no period at all. I can remember at first it was kind of regular then over time it slowly got lighter and sorta went away. I still have a full blown period maybe once every 3 months now, and the cramps are outta this world. Spotting is regular, and weird discharge is regular. I’ve gotten used to that. I have never even tried to feel for my strings or the Mirena itself but when my SO and I have sex, sometimes he says it pokes him and hurts, like if I’m on top. 
One thing I have noticed over the past 7 years is that I get super paranoid about it and about being pregnant but in the end, the IUD has always worked well for me by doing its job, and it always ends up just being paranoia!
The ONLY complaint I have is that I just randomly feel like screaming my head off at times, like I get super mad for no reason at all. 🤷🏻‍♀️🤔

Answer

Mierna was the worst decision I ever made. I had two. One for 4 and replaced and another for 3 years. I have two kids prior to mierna. Got off December 2017.

Answer

You aren’t supposed to be feeling the hard part of the iud at all which means it’s out of place if you are . Go get checked!

Answer

I actually just went through the exsct7 same thing and I went to the doctor. I was tested and checked for everything. Nothing, I was fine. I bled for 3 days like implantion bleeding. Light. And then no period. Then here comes my period full brown lots of blood. I filled up pads for 3 days! Wishing 2 hours. I thought I was having a miscarriage. Well, no my period lasted 10 days, 13 if you want to count the "break" through bleeding. Ive had my iud since 2017 jan. Sick of it. Ive has bv+ multi yeast infections since with irreglaur period. But dont want to take it out due to the risk of pregnancy :/

Answer

Go get it checked by your doctor. My period was regular for the whole two years I had it. Then I had some irregular bleeding. When I went to get it removed after I got married it was halfway out! So go get it checked!! Better safe than sorry.

Answer

Before I got mine removed I was never able to feel the hard part of it but only the string even if I was able to get all the way inside. Maybe go to ur doc to make sure it didn’t shift. Brown discharge is old blood n many women don’t get a period after a while on it, I wasn’t that lucky. So that could be the reason y ur period has come as well
