Mirena - 6 months

Yes. I didn't really bleed at all with it for around the first 5 months, maybe a bit of spotting which was great except for the other side effects. Then I started bleeding regularly and it seemed like it was losing effect. I recently had it removed and I'm glad I did. You could just be going through a short phase of bleeding and it will subside. I couldn't handle the side effects so for me that was the issue.

Did not work for me had what felt like a two year long period. Then had it removed.
