question: Mirena I am 21 years old and have been married for almost two years. Last February we decided to get birth control so I had the IUD known as Mirena inserted. Ever since I have been experiencing major cramps between my lower abdomen and my pelvic area. I have also had issues with over discharging to the point that pads are useless. Along with this, I have been having uncomfortable pains when urinating almost as if I have a UTI. Is this due to the Mirena? What should I do?
