Yes: If you are having a discharge with odor, that is not normal. It may be nothing serious, Lila an imbalance in the vaginal flora. With the IUD, you should make sure there's no infection.

Yes: It is not abnormal to have breakthrough bleeding due to the Progesterone in the Mirena (levonorgestrel). However, there shouldn't be an odor. This be a sign of overgrowth of bacteria in the vagina. I recommend that you see you doctor.
