A member asked:

Do you get regular cervical mucus changes on mirena (levonorgestrel) like during the reg cycle?

A doctor has provided 1 answer

Dr. Susan Arnoult answered

No: The mucous changes occur because of estrogen changes with ovulation. Mirena (levonorgestrel) is Progesterone so no ovulation should occur.
