Have the mirena, (levonorgestrel) rarely get periods. for a week i've had bleeding, it's seems to stop but then occurs after exercise & bowel movements. is it normal?

Mirena (levonorgestrel): This type of IUD has progesterone in it. Most women do not have periods or get irregular bleeding. What you are describing is a normal effect. If this continues or becomes too bothersome see the doctor who places your Mirena (levonorgestrel).
