First off, I've done a test and it's negative.
Okay so I will have had the mirena coil for 5 years in November. I asked for it out a year ago as i felt it was not working like it used to. The first three years I had no periods, never suspected pregnancy etc, it was great.
Last year I began to have periods again. At first there was no pattern to them but in the last six months they have settled into a 24 day cycle give or take a day either side.
They haven't been able to remove my coil because they couldn't see strings, I had an ultrasound and my coil is where it should be, I'm now waiting on an appointment with gynae for removal.
So I had a period on the 21st august. I've had increasingly painful breasts for nearly two weeks now.
