A member asked:
I had mirena (levonorgestrel) inserted about a month ago and i have been bleeding on and off since not heavy bleeding except the week i was on my cycle. is this normal?

Mirena (levonorgestrel): Irregular and light bleeding with the Mirena (levonorgestrel) is very normal. After 6 months or more, your period may be shorter and lighter, it may remain irregular, or it may stop altogether.
