Yes. Depending on the type of IUD some women have heavier periods for the first 6 months, others including the Mirena are supposed to cause lighter periods and many women will have no periods at all.

If the period is very painful, heavier than normal or accompanied by a fever you should be seen by your medical professional.

Whether you still have a menstrual cycle or not depends on the type of IUD you have. A hormonal IUD will stop your menstrual cycle (although you may still bleed), whereas a copper IUD has no impact on your menstrual cycle at all as there are no hormones involved.

In the first months of using IUDs, bleeding between periods may be a side effect. This pattern improves with time.

Can your period stop with an IUD?

If you're using Mirena, the IUD that releases progestin, your period usually will stop, although you may have irregular spotting in the first weeks or months of use. If you're using the copper IUD, your periods will not stop. If your period has been regular since using the IUD, and then stopped, take a pregnancy test.
