I had my son via c section in 2015 then got mirena that same year. stopped getting my period a year ago and now i have some spotting in my discharge?

Normal: About 25 to 50% of people using Mirena (levonorgestrel) iud will not have periods. That being said having a period or in your case having spotting is normal. This does not mean that the iud is not working. This is a perfectly normal situation.
