Yes it is normal. The tissues inside are very fragile. If you should have excessive bleeding at any given time while you have the IUD in, please see your doctor as soon as possible. You may not be able to use this method of contraceptive. Good luck Marcy
Missing a period once in five years is normal with or without the IUD.
Each person has a different delay period after having an IUD removed. Some people may have a normal period right after the removal while others may not for up to a year. A doctor will need to be seen to make sure everything is okay with the delayed period.
Not at all! It's normal to have a longer heavier period but like 2-3 days longer. You need to go to your doctor ASAP!
NO! IUDs can have terrible side effects, and you need to see your doctor immediately!
Yes, your body is noticing that the hormonal effects of the IUD aren't in tact anymore so it thinks its going to start its normal period cycle. Just like some IUD's cause cramping and spotting when you first get them in, they can do the same coming out.
Of course you can unless you have another medical problem causing issues. If you discussed IUD's with your doctor you would know it can take several months for you period to return after removing the IUD.
The Mirena IUD causes most people to stop having a period, so yes, this is normal.
Yes, it's normal to charge for an IUD follow up appointment if it's not in the global period.
It depends on the IUD. I was on Mirena and I missed several periods, I can't tell you about other makes. I have a IUD for thre and a half years. I havn't had a single period. It depends whether you get a hormonal or non-hormonal IUD. I have an IUD that is non hormonal, and just contains copper. This causes a hostile environment for sperm (as copper kills sperm) without affecting my ovulation or other hormonal patterns. Hormonal IUD's are available which repress ovulation and some can also create a mucus plug which aids in preventing sperm from getting past the cervix. Nice to know we have options :)
It's easiest for you and your health care provider to have the IUD inserted during your period.
The Merina and other hormone secreting IUD's can have some symptoms of early pregnancy, if your period is 7 days late call your doctor.
If you have occasional heavy spotting between periods it is something to discuss with your doctor but may not be serious. If this just started and continues for more than two months, definitely see your doctor as the IUD may be becoming implanted and cause serious injury.
