Bleeding with Mirena

Almost two months ago I had Mirena inserted.  I researched alot and found that alot of people loved it and I loved the idea of have a lite period.  Well my period started on Dec 1.  It was my first period since I had it inserted and it was right on time, no early and not late.  Well I have not stopped bleeding.  It doesn't bother me that much but I was just wondering if anyone else had experiecnced this and how long did it last?  Also my fiance is very large and during intercourse I can feel a sharp pain that I was not experiencing during the few weeks of having Mirena.  I was scared that he may have knocked it out of place but less than two weeks ago I had it checked by my OB and she said it is perfect.  And that I should not worrying.  Can someone please make me feel better about this.

that is the furthest from the truth. My doctor told me to always check to BE ABLE TO FEEL IT after I had intercourse and after my period to make sure it hadn't migrated.

Hi, I got mine last year, a month ago I went to get it checked out as it had been 6 months, and Id been getting bad cramps, bleeding and a lot of discomfort. After my scan, we saw the miraena had moved! I got another one put in, and I've been bleeding since, so 3 weeks and in a lot of pain! Don't know what to do!

ive had the mirena in for 3 1/2 months now and have had nonstop heavy bleeding. i will soak thru a super plus tampon in as little as 2hrs. the dr told me this is rare and has me taking a double dose of generess fe birth control for a wk to see if that can stop it and im on my 5th day of that and im still spotting which is so much better than the extreme heavy bleeding ive been having. even if the birth control pill stops the bleeding i think im going to have it taken out. im worried that it will start up again

I bleed for 3 weeks and no blood for 4days then back at it again ... seems like my cycle is the total opposite of what it was before mirena.
