Bleeding daily for 9 months with mirena
« on: March 28, 2019, 04:56:45 PM »

Hello all

Sadly my mirena hasn't settled down after 9 months. Unusual for me as I had the mirena for 17 years and it was great.  This one is for hrt purposes. I don't understand why I am bleeding when I am post menopause?  I have a large fibroid and perhaps the coil is in a place aggravating it?  Any thoughts appreciated.

I have Evorel 100 mug and two pumps of estrogel daily.

Could my coil cause bleeding or could it be something more sinister?

I have a scan tomorrow, just want to ask good questions.

Thanks!

Could it be that the oestrogen has caused your fibroids to grow despite the Mirena. I was on sequential HRT and mine grew considerably due to the oestrogen.

Good luck with your scan

Hi CarryWarry

You are on a very, very high dose of oestrogen so I doubt anything would prevent you from bleeding.  I would have thought your womb lining would build up a great deal on such a high dose. How did the scan go? DG x
