I had mirena (levonorgestrel) iud for 2 1/2 yrs. been off it for a yr. now tried to concieve but nothing what cud b wrong can i still have babies?

It depends: The iud thins the lining of the inside of the uterus usually and so it needs to return to normal and then it is more likely you will conceive. Also, i'm not sure how long you have been trying. It takes 12 months for two normal partners to become pregnant. The Mirena (levonorgestrel) intrauterine system should not affect long term fertility.
