A member asked:

I'm on mirena (levonorgestrel) for 3 1/2 yrs now with regular periods that last 6 days. never been late, now i'm almost 2 months late now, i wonder why?

A doctor has provided 1 answer

Potential pregnancy: IUDs may fail - so if a woman on a Mirena (levonorgestrel) IUD has had regular periods and all of a sudden misses her period, a pregnancy test would show, if the IUD actually failed.
