Dienogest & Mirena
I agreed to the
mirena
coil which I got in October the bleeding is just starting to settle now. The hospital have just prescribed me dienogest to take along side it.

Starting the endo diagnosis journey but I'm still not sure...
I opted to remove my
mirena
coil in the hope that it was this causing all the issues but I'm still suffering with the bloating, pain in my left hip, lower tummy and bowel, pain when going to the toilet (#2, it feels like piles but it's not). Has anyone else had the same experience as me?

Painful & Prolonged Period After Lap + Mirena
I had my first laparoscopy with a specialist consultant in Ireland, alongside excision of stage 2 endo and a
Mirena
coil inserted during the op. My recovery was great, but as my period was due 10 days post op I was unsure if I would have one.

Mirena pain/discharge
I don't have an endo diagnosis but it is suspected and I have had the coil fitted today to help with the pain. Is it normal to have brown discharge/bleeding almost immediately after insertion (Less than 2 hours later)? Also, the fitting was extremely painful, especially the speculum being inserted/opened

Mirena coil or pill - experiences/opinions?
Or, might it be best to opt for the
Mirena
coil? The coil sounds like one of the better options, albeit uncomfortable initially. I’m also not sure if the nausea is also partly down to the constant stream of painkillers I’m relying on to get through the days.

Interaction of Mirena Coil and Thyroid Levels
Can anyone advise on interactions between
Mirena
Coil and Thyroid Levels? I have finally got control of my Thyroid Levels with the right medication and diet, but suffering from intermuscular fibroids. My ferritin remains low, which GP thinks is linked to fibroids. Any help/ advice will be great.

Pain and cycle worsen after mirena?
Mirena
supposedly stops bleeding and pain as they claim right? For me it made things worsen or is it just my endo worsening? Any advice or tips or similar experiences? Thanks for reading. 😊

on the list for laparoscopy!
He did mention that regardless of the outcome, I'll need to have either the
Mirena
coil or the injection to manage bleeding. I don't want the coil as I'm not sexually active and it makes me feel uncomfortable, so most likely I'll go for the injection.

What’s wrong with me?!?!!!!
I had the
Mirena
coil fitted too and been told to expect pain but this can’t just be from that?! I honestly don’t know what to do next. I’ve fought for an MRI and it’s happening next week but it’s only looking at my back because I said the pain radiates there.

Pain with Mirena after 3 years
I had the
mirena
coil fitted at the same time as a hysteroscopy 3 years ago to treat pain and heavy bleeding. After an initial period of 7-8 months settling time, where I had daily spotting, the pain and bleeding settled.

mirena
coil? [u][i] [/i][/u]

What's next after my laparoscopy and follow up appointment?
I feel a bit lost now and the only long term care I have been given is the
mirena
coil and to 'keep an eye' on any pain and symptoms. I'm not sure where to go from here now - any advice please?

Coil Removal due to Mental Health
Hi I’m turning to here because I feel like I have nowhere else to go I’m 20 with a one year old and I had the
Mirena
coil fitted mid February. Physically everything was fine apart from mild cramping, however it wasn’t the one I wanted!!

Help Needed Before Appointment! (adenomyosis)
After a long diagnosis journey, being fobbed off and trying what felt like every pill/ injection under the sun, I agreed to have the
mirena
coil in october 2020. Like so many others on this site I have had a horrendous time pushing to be taken seriously.
