Hey everyone, I am so fed up and frustrated with trying to find a good contraception.

With PCOS do women normally bleed all the time ?

I have have suspected PCOS , I have been on the combo pill and the mini. I am now trying the mirena coil I had it fitted 6 weeks ago and I am still bleeding.

I have been bleeding non stop ( not always fresh blood) probably since Feb 2020 .

I been getting on and off pain around my hips and it can be quite painful.

I am definitely not pregnant and nor do I want to be.

I have had bleeding after sex. Any suggestions? Thanks :)

Forgot to mention I am waiting for smear test results , got to wait 2 weeks. Also had STi tests came back negative

Thank you for the extra information. By 6 months about 65% of women with an IUS will have no bleeds. So I'm afraid it is early days yet for the coil to have stopped your bleeding.
