IUD- Mirena discharge
I have had a Mirena IUD for 2 years. The past 2 months I have had frequent watery discharge. I went to the doctor and he said that the IUD can give you all kinds of strange discharge. Is anyone else having this problem?
This is the same issue I have. I had my first son in 2008 and before he was one, gave birth to a set of twins. I knew I had to have some sort of contraception in place after that. But every since I've had the Mirena, I have had nothing but problems. Yeast infections, infections the doctors can't explain. I was tested for STD's for about 9 months straight trying to find out what was going on with me. That was very embarassing because I am faithful to my husband and it's just a bad look. I don't know what directed me to this page, but after seeing all of this, I am getting mine taken out ASAP. I thought I was alone and that my body was so out of line. I hate that you all are experiencing this, but it puts my mind at ease knowing that I'm not alone.
I am a RN and have had the Mirena for 4.5 years. Remember, everyone is diffrent. Some have no periods, some have heavy periods. The bottom line is if it it painful, or misserable to have the IUD, talk to your doctor and take it out! Don't try to tough it out. Most likely these symptoms will continue to be there. There are risks, and your doctor can help you figure out if the side effects are worth it, or indicitive of a problem. I still have heavy periods, i have the weird wattery discharge, but I just deal with it. Its okay if you aren't willing to do so. If its making you misserable, get rid of it! Don't be ashamed, this isnt right for everyone. It is important to find what is right for you :)
