Hi, I had the coil fitted a few weeks ago and I'm now having a light and unpainful period. Is this normal?

Hi! This is perfectly normal. One of the reasons people get the Mirena is that it can stop periods altogether, and if it doesn't it very often makes them a lot lighter and a lot less painful and much easier to live with.

Hope that helps :)

That does help, thank you! It seems to have only lasted a day, again, is this normal? I'm assuming it's just a very light one or and irregular one which I've heard is normal?

Hi, if you are not sure I would book an appointment with the sexual health service that fitted this and double check with them.

It's okay it turned out to last longer than a day so it is just a period haha! Thank you though ☺️
