Abnormal Uterine Bleeding
"I got the mirena coil inserted against my better judgment.   Had it for 2 years now for heavy frequent periods.  Although it mostly became lighter I still get  a period every 10 days which lasted 9 days.  Nightmare!  Every few months I get a very heavy bleed which lasts for 2 weeks with clotting.  Have asked my doctor to take it out but I kept getting told that it would settle down.  Last straw was when I started bleeding 3 weeks ago non stop.  Some days so heavy I can&#039;t leave the house.  I went to doctor and demanded it be taken out.  She tried and couldn&#039;t get it out.  She has referred me to a gynacologist which may take a while to get an appointment.  Meanwhile I keep bleeding heavily.  Would never recommend this product."
