Sorry don't remember bleeding at all, maybe you should go back to GPs? In fact periods completely stopped after about 3 months

My doc told me I may bleed for 6 months! However, I've had more of a dark discharge, only really noticable when I go to the loo - and that's gone now (3 months - just a bit pinky when I would normally be 'on')

Are you having any pain?

keepplodding · 25/10/2009 08:06

no, no pain at all. Just wish it would stop!

I had bleeding for 3 weeks after copper coil, then a period, then more bleeidng- went back to FPC in desperation and they looked- said it was half out! I had it removed. Go back to the GP.

I think you're right, I will go back next week. I just thought I would know (have pain or something) if it had moved, I assumed this was normal!

I had bleeding on and off for around 6 months, it was getting me down so much I nearly had it removed and then one day, it suddenly stopped. I've ha the Mirena 18 months now and I've had no problems for the past 12 months.

I had very light bleeding most days for 3-4 months. Has stopped now for past 3 days!
