Not yet: When stopping any hormonal form of birth control, including Mirena (levonorgestrel) iud, there can be several weeks to a month in which the periods are irregular. So having two periods close together is likely not a problem. If the bleeding is prolonged or very heavy or doesn't go to normal by 4-6 weeks you might want to see someone.
