A member asked:
When you are considering having another child whithin a year. when is the best time to remove your mirena (levonorgestrel)? i have had mine in for 5 1/2 years
A doctor has provided 1 answer
Your expired: Mirena (levonorgestrel) can stay up to five years and then needs to be removed. Yours expired 6 months ago so removal at this time is indicated. Normally one does not need to remove it until they want to get pregnant. Pregnancies have been seen as early as 7 days after removal.
