A member asked:
What does lack of cm mean on mirena (levonorgestrel)? i am due for period in 5 days and i have no cm, thought mirena (levonorgestrel) worked by thickening cm
A doctor has provided 1 answer
No: Mirena (levonorgestrel) works by effecting the lining of the uterus, not the mucous. While it tends to decrease the mucous around ovulation, it otherwise has little effect on it. May women do experience a little more discharge with the IUD, but it can vary.
