Is anyone TTC after Mirena Coil removal?

[EJay84]

Had my coil removed a week past on Monday to TTC baby no 3. I'm 36 soon, 9 years older than at my last pregnancy so no idea if it will be harder this time. My other 2, we conceived first cycle. I don't even know when or if to expect a period so that I can time when I might be ovulating, since I haven't had a period on the coil for 5 yrs. Not even really looking for advice I suppose, just to see if anyone is in same boat with TTC after having a coil removed?

@sup99 yeah definitely, I’ve 100% seen it mentioned during my obsessive symptom spotting last month. I felt the exact same as you when I got my bfn on 11dpo, so down and low. My af arrived the evening of 12dpo so I’m going by that and not going to test this cycle if I can help it, the bfn feeling was so much worse than af arriving. I tried to reminded myself that even if you get it bang on you’ve only got about 25% chance of success per cycle, and this was cycle 1!! Try to give yourself a bit of slack - easier said than done, I know.

So I was really chilled about it this month because I’ve been so busy, pretty certain I ovulated yesterday though going by random LH testing (I got positive OPKs two days in a row which was weird, so I’m just guessing) and a temp spike today. We’ve been DTD lots over the last 8-9 days because of the wedding so I think that’s why I wasn’t too stressed - I didn’t have to make any effort to make sure we did it at the right time. Counting today as 1DPO.

@sup99 defo don’t count yourself out yet!
@Amy259 fingers crossed for you

I’m back to work now after summer hols so super busy. Weird period for me day 1 spotting day 2 light flow day 3 spotting days 4 nothing day 5 brown cm type spotting day 6 brown cm type spotting! 🤷🏼‍♀️ So odd

@LaceyMermaid that’s so odd! Have you started the new supplements you were going to try? Fingers crossed they improve things for you!

Yes @Amy259 I’ve taken soy isoflavones so we’ll see if they make my ovulation stronger!

Hello ladies, I have finally had my coil removed
Been waiting since December!!
I have two children age 12 and 9.
Only had coil removed yesterday with local anaesthetic and considerable blood loss but at least it is out

Hi @Katierose34. You'll be relieved it's finally out. That was such a long time to wait. Are you planning to TTC right away? x

Yes planning ttc ASAP! I will be 35 this year and hubby 40 so keen to get going

Hi all! I’m onto cycle for now as AF arrived today. However I took soy isoflavones on cd3-7 this month and although I didn’t get my bfp, I ovulated 5 days earlier and I’ve got a proper full flow AF (last 2 AFs have been super light and short) for the first time since my coil was removed so hoping this is a good sign! Good luck everyone!

Congrats @EJay84 !!
Hi all!
I’m having my Mirena removed on Monday morning. I‘ve had it in for coming up two years and had really light periods so not looking forward to normal flow periods again! Xx

How long did you ladies bleed after coil removal, if at all? I am on day 3 of bleeding although today it is very light and just have very mild cramping at my lower back.

I had nothing at all until a month later then had a very light 3 day period (mainly spotting). Same again next month. Third month now and I’ve got a more normal period. I’d had mirenas for ages though!

Hello ladies, how are we all doing?
So as you know when I had coil removed on 24th Sept I had some bleeding that lasted around 4 days.
Been using ovulation tests and yesterday and today had positive fertile days. Has anyone conceived on their fertile days straight after coil removal, with out having a period??
