A member asked:

Mirena (levonorgestrel) removed 5/5/14 to ttc. bled 5 days later for a day. no more bleeding since, cramping for week and a half and headaches, neg preg test. call dr?

A doctor has provided 1 answer

Maybe: The bleeding post removal of the IUD is not unusual due to endometrial breakage and the trauma of removal. If the cramping continues, call your MD.
