Where is my period?!

Hi all, DP and I are keeping our TTC plans quiet so I don't have anyone to sound out in real life...appreciate collective wisdom!!

I've had 3 mirena coils so no periods for 15 years. I had my mirena out on 22 December, and had a 1 day bleed on 1 January. Then had a proper period for 5 days between 10-14 January. Then...nothing.

I'm not sure if it's just my cycle settling post-mirena (I've been on some sort of hormonal contraception since I was 16, I'm now 36!), but why did I then have a proper period? It's just disconcerting and I'm not sure how long I should wait until I get worried.

This is normal. The first bleed isn't a proper period it is a response to change in hormones. It took 2 months for mine to return and i concieved 6 months after it was removed xxx

Thank you, I guess I'll just wait out for now and hope it comes back proper soon.
