A member asked:

Ive been bleeding heavily and passing large clots since i had my mirena (levonorgestrel) out 10 days ago. i have been taking primulot n for 6 days which hasn't helped?

A doctor has provided 1 answer

Bleeding common: Its common to have a lot of bleeding after a Mirena (levonorgestrel) is removed. Its something I always tell women to expect. It doesn't surprise me that Primulot hasn't helped. The active ingredient in Mirena (levonorgestrel) is a type of Progesterone. When it is removed, your Progesterone levels drop. This is a signal for your uterus to bleed. It usually goes away on its own. Best wishes!
