A member asked:

I am on mirena (levonorgestrel) (2 yrs). period is normally 3 days long & light. i have had my period 3 times this month and it is heavy. what could cause this?

A doctor has provided 1 answer

Anovulation: Mirena (levonorgestrel) can cause anovulation. This is when the ovary fails to release an egg. This alters hormonal levels and disrupts the cycle.
