A member asked:

Why am i still bleeding 8 months after having the mirena (levonorgestrel) coil fitted?

A doctor has provided 1 answer

Not normal: If u are bleeding in between your periods or all the time, if u have bleeding once per month that is normal , often the Mirena (levonorgestrel) will stop all your bleeding but many women have break through bleeding on it, please discuss with your gyn.
