I am having my periods with the Mirena- Need extra info?

Question

I have had the Mirena since last september and have not had my periods since. However, since my pap smear last week, my periods came. I have been bleeding for a little more than 7 days and usually my periods last about 5, is this ok? Has anyone had this happen to them? I called my OB/GYN doctor this morning but haven't had a call back. If anyone can help, that would be awesome. Thanks!

Answer 1

Some bleeding after a pap smear for a couple days but anything after that means that something like an infection (just an example only) could be going on.

I would recommend trying to call the doctor again to let them know what's going on.
