Have just read Taking Charge of Your Fertility (waiting to have stupid walkabout Mirena removed surgically and desperate to start TTCing.

Noticed this morning that have v small breakthough bleed, v stringy clear CM (sorry if TMI) and some lower belly aching. Would say I was about to come on, if I didn't have Mirena.

So does this sound like ovulation? And if it is, would there be any point in tracking my cycle a bit so I'm in a good position when I do finally get rid of the mirena? Have a Persona, but some nice MNer advised me so know there's no point using it till the Mirena's gone.

Thanks for any advice.

hiya,

I think you still ovulate on Mirena but not sure so maybe have a google.

I had a Mirena coil,had it removed in march and got pregnant two weeks after I had it removed.Unfortunately I had a miscarriage at 9 weeks.The obstetrican I saw said I should have been advised to wait for a bit after it was removed before TTC.

I would wait for at least one cycle if I were you.

Mumcah, I'm so sorry to hear that.

I didn't get any such advice when I had my first one removed, but didn't conceive for eight weeks so I suppose I did have a bit of a wait.

Do plan to wait a month once it's finally removed, but don't know when it will be yet.
