abnormal uterine bleeding
"I'm 28 years old. No children.  I switched from the nuva ring to the mirena. I've had the mirena for 10 months. Insertion was not painful for me, just try and relax (I rested my arms above my head and it helped my cervix open more). I had one day of painful cramping the first month. For 8 months I had normal/lighter periods once per month. The past 2 months I have been spotting and bleeding almost everyday with abdominal cramping. It's like having a period every week for 8 weeks. I've had the mirena placement double checked and had a abdominal check up; nothing abnormal found. Still bleeding/spotting now, but it's manageable. Hoping this will pass."
