mirena iud removal

[erynnroxanne]

I had my IUD put in 6 weeks after having my first baby.I bleed for 4 weeks after having it put in.My periods have not been fun and very unpredictable.Lasting for almost 2 weeks and maybe 2-3 weeks apart.They are starting to become better now,but I plan on getting it removed in a month to start trying for baby number 2.I am worried that I am going to bleed for a long time after having it removed.The IUD hasn't been the best experience for me.I know I will have to deal with whatever comes of it, I was just wondering if anyone else has has extensive bleeding after removal.

I had my IUD inserted on June 13, 2007 after I gave birth to my son and then I had it removed on July 2, 2009, so that my husband and I could try for baby number 2. After I had it removed I bleed for a week straight and 4 of those days were extremely bad, then it took me 43 days to get my 1st period, my cycles stayed teh same as before Mirena was inserted so that was nice. I would recommend that you get your IUD removed 3 months prior to trying to conceive so that it gives your body time to adjust. It took me almost 7 months to finally conceive my second child, so the sooner you have it removed the better in my opinion, you can always use another form of birth control until your ready to start trying. Hope this helps, and best wishes.

P.S. You should join the how long did it take to conceive after Mirena IUD removal the women on there are very supportive and very knowledgeable.
