abnormal uterine bleeding
"I was anemic and very low iron levels and even experienced passing out. I would bleed 10 days and couldn't control my bleeding ruining clothes chairs bed mattresses and sheets not to mention sleepless nights.  I have a uterus fibroid and a few outside the uterus.  I still had the Mirena placed even with the fact it may not be successful due to the fibroids. The first 3 months  were spotting a lot but nothing more than a light day. 4th month seemed to have a period and spotted the whole month. I waited it out and I couldn't be happier.  It is a wonderful thing. I have read a lot of negative things but its all opinions and its like trying new food, somethings you like, some you don't."
