A member asked:

Ive taken 2 home pregnancy test both show negative. ive had mirena (levonorgestrel) almost 3 years and am a month late. what could be happening?

Can you: Feel your string? If so your IUD should be in place and you are 99+ percent protected. It is very common for women with the mirena (levonorgestrel) to stop or significantly diminish their flow. My thought is that is what is happening.
