So I had my mirena coil taken out last Monday after having it in for only 5 months (didn't sit well with me and also to start ttc) and I have been bleeding really heavy with clots for the last week with no signs of it slowing down anytime soon. Has anyone else had similar experience after mirena removal? How long did it take to settle down? I feel like it's never going to stop and how are we supposed to ttc if I don't stop bleeding and actually settle into some sort of cycle? 😢

I had this sort of very heavy bleeding after my mirena was taken out. I remember thinking in the first few days that it was never going to stop but it did. I think 7-10 days? It does get better. x.
Thank you so much for your reply. I'm so relieved to hear it should stop soon! It's day 7 now so hopefully it should start to ease soon then. It just feels like it's been going on forever and it's so heavy! Hopefully there'll be light at the end of the tunnel soon! X
I had exactly the same but it did ease and then stop. I think it's because the Mirena has been giving your body artificial progesterone so your body stops making its own - until it's been removed for a little while. I think this is what causes the bleeding to be heavier. Xxx
Sorry to be the bearer of bad news but I have had mine removed for NINE months now and I bleed heavily EVERY cycle. I cant make plans to go anywhere because I am changing tampons/pads every hr or so. This goes on for at least three days. Cant help but think that maybe I am heading into menopause. I am just 39 and I do wanna have another baby. Had to move back home so no job and no insurance rt now. I literally am going insane!!!!
