**MIRENA IUD*** Please Read!!?
I got my Mirena IUD Removed on May 8th.
My first menstral cycle came on May 11th.
My second cycle was due on June 7th.
And my third on July 4th.
The 2nd and 3rd cycles have not come!
I have an ob-gyn appt on Tuesday.
She told me that my period should go back to normal immediately.
I have taken urine pregnancy tests at home (2 of them) and they come out negative. However, I have been pregnant twice before (#1 miscarriage & #2 my daughter) and never have I shown on a urine test.
I have symptoms such as, sore breast (not to much anymore though), heart burn, dizzy & faint feeling, naseous (not vomitting though), tired, and my appetite ranges from starving to not hungry at all.
Has this happened to you?
Any delay in your period after removal of the IUD?
Thanks.
Answer:
If you truely are concerned about being pregnant, and you have never been positive thru a urine test, I would recommend going to your doctor and having a blood test.
However, removing your mirena is removing a device which gave hormones directly thru your cervix, so you may get hormones with the changing of your cycles, which may explain the sore breasts. All woman react differently to the removal, and just because the doctor said it should be normal immediately, doesnt mean all woman are. Were you normal/regular to begin with?
With all of that aside, if you truely think you are pregnant, or are worried about your cycle not returning to normal immediately, then go see your doctor!
Good luck! ;-)
