How long is normal bleeding with Mirena?

For many women who have given birth, they are worried about contraception, because if they are not careful, they may get pregnant out of wedlock and harm their health. Therefore, if you do not want to have a child for the time being, you must do a good job of contraception. Wearing the Mirena IUD can have a good contraceptive effect. However, some women will experience spotting after wearing the Mirena IUD. What is the reason? Let's find out together.

If vaginal bleeding occurs after the placement of the Mirena ring, this is a side effect caused by the Mirena ring itself, which usually occurs within 6 months after the ring is worn. For the uterine cavity, the Mirena ring itself is a foreign body, and the Mirena ring also contains a certain amount of estrogen. Therefore, for most women, obvious irregular vaginal bleeding may occur after the placement of the Mirena ring, which will usually recover naturally after 6 months. As long as the bleeding is not very heavy or accompanied by other discomfort, it does not require special treatment.

Of course, if a woman has prolonged bleeding after using Mirena, or is accompanied by symptoms such as abdominal distension and abdominal pain, it is possible that she has an inflammation and should take anti-inflammatory measures in time. At the same time, she should pay attention to a light diet and avoid eating spicy and irritating foods. She can consider taking ornidazole for anti-inflammatory treatment.

In addition to infection, some women experience continuous bleeding after IUD insertion, which may be caused by some gynecological diseases. For example, when you have uterine fibroids or uterine wall diseases, it may also cause continuous bleeding in the vagina. It is recommended to go to the hospital for examination in time, and then treat the symptoms according to the examination results.

What is the reason for spotting and bleeding while wearing the Mirena IUD? If the bleeding only occurs within six months after wearing the IUD, it is normal. If the bleeding continues beyond this period, or the bleeding is heavy and accompanied by other discomforts, then other factors need to be considered, such as inflammation, uterine fibroids or uterine fibroids, which can all cause spotting and bleeding. Pay attention to timely examination and use medication after determining the cause.
