I switched 6 months ago from my Mirena because, after almost 6 years, it was less effective at reducing bleeding and cramps. The doctor said I should get the Kyleena and that it was the same thing. My periods used to be pretty light with about 4 days of bleeding and now with the Kyleena I bleed for 10+ days and have cramps again. I hate it sooo much.
Has anyone else had a similar experience going from Mirea to Kyleena?
Ive had my kyleena for basically one year and have always had cramping right before my period. This doesn't necessairly happen every month since insertion but most months for sure. i went to my doctor a month ago, told her about the cramping, got an ultasound to make sure kyleena was in place and boom she was! Shes in the proper position, yet i still have terrible almost contraction like cramping before my period almost every month, happens right after ovulation. My doc told me thats just what it is basically and my iud is not to be concerned about. just wondering if anyone else gets these cramps on kyleena?
I'm thinking of getting my Mirena removed. I'm a little over 3 months in and it helped so much with my cramps and PMDD, but I've been bleeding for most of that 3 months. And not just spotting, it's like a period. I have about 2 to 3 days a month where I'm not bleeding. I'm iron deficient so it's very worrying to me that I'm bleeding so much. I had a very low level of iron so I lost a lot of my hair year last year and it's started to grow back, but now I'm starting to lose more hair.
But the past two weeks were crazy. I started my period on the 18th and it continued through yesterday. It was very heavy this week and my PMDD was so bad.
The bleeding was annoying but I can't deal with the mental effects. It's been better today but it's still there. I'm not sure if this is a one off but if the PMDD doesn't stop I'm going to have it removed because I just don't think it's worth it.
Anyone else experience excessive burping and nausea with hormonal IUD!?
I've had these symptoms for the past 2 years and I'm now convinced it's from the IUD (have had other digestive tests done that have come back negative).
