I have had an IUD since June 2022 Half a year has already passed and I am still bleeding, as with a normal period, abdominal pain. Is there a chance that menstruation will disappear completely? Because I do not hide that I mainly cared about it. Wait or give up the insert?

Menstrual bleeding and lower abdominal pain such as menstruation, as well as bleeding, intermenstrual spotting may occur during the use of Mirena for up to 3-6 months after application. If, on the other hand, bleeding intensifies, occurs more often and more abundantly, it is a reason to remove/replace the intrauterine device (but this is decided by the attending physician). The bleeding itself can also have another cause, hence medical consultation is necessary. With each month of application of the system, there should be a gradual reduction in the number and number of days of bleeding. In some women, there is a complete disappearance of menstrual bleeding. If the bleeding is long or intense, I encourage you to consult a gynecologist. It is also possible to use the teleadvice offered, m.in. by the Gdziepolek.pl portal: https://www.gdziepolek.pl/telekonsultacja/z-ginekologiem I also encourage you to report the occurrence of side effects of the Mirena system. Reporting adverse reactions allows you to increase control over medicines available on the market. We wrote more about how and why to report side effects in the article: https://www.gdziepolek.pl/artykuly/jak-i-dlaczego-zglaszac-dzialania-niepozadane I encourage you to familiarize yourself with additional materials that may be useful: https://www.gdziepolek.pl/artykuly/antykoncepcja-hormonalna https://www.gdziepolek.pl/kategorie/wkladki-domaciczne
