Because it's practically guaranteed to remain effective for the 5 years, but the probability of it remaining effective for 7 is slightly lower. It's precautionary to remove it, just in case it does not work the remaining 2 years.

What if you think you're pregnant on Mirena?
If you think you're pregnant on Mirena, take a pregnancy test.
What if you dont take your Mirena out after 5yrs?
It just ceases to work (although I understand that there is actually enough Levonorgestrol in it to last 7 years).It just isn't active anymore. It's recommended that the plastic piece be taken before another year has passed. After 5 years, you can get pregnant. SThe effectiveness of Mirena IUD is related to the low dose of hormones - once you hit five years, you are no longer getting an effective dose of hormones to prevent ovulation and conception.This may leave you at a slightly higher risk of ectopic pregnancy so the Mirena should be removed as soon as possible. It can be replaced on the same day the old one is removed.If you no longer have an OB/GYN doctor, you can go to any Planned Parenthood office.

How long do motorcycle leathers last?
If you take care of the leather, keeping it clean with Saddle Soap as needed, and don't skid down the highway on them, they should last long enough to pass on to your heirs. My jacket is about 50 years old.
You got Mirena in May and am still bleeding heavily and have really bad cramps is this normal?
I am sorry to hear that you are having a bad time with the Mirena. I too had the Mirena and experienced the same issues as yourself over an 8 month period. It turned out that I had several oversized Fibroids and the Mirena did not help with the stemming of heavy bleeding. I had my Mirena removed and subsequently the Fibroids - best thing I ever did. I know they say it can work instantly or may take a couple of months, but it depends on how long you want to continue with things they way they are. Good luck with which ever dicision you make.
