Horrific. Gynacologist suggested Mirena coil for heavy periods and bad PMS as couldn't take Pill due to hormone sensitivity. Coil fine at fitting, very strong stomach pain which was to be expected. However it felt like my kidneys had been punched due to pain. The back pain was so severe it went all the way down my legs and I couldn't sit/ stnd or lie down without wincing. After 7 days I had coil removed, I was told it had dropped down. Three months later I am still recieving physio to alleviate back pain cause muscule trauma from the coil.

I am 15 years old I have been on countless contraceptives I have just come of the depo shot to go on the ius coil and it was a easy procedure there is a downside thought I have had cramps that only seem to be getting worse and the bleeding has gone from light to heavy this is the first day of having bad bleeding but I don't really know what to think I went to the doctors and the string were still in place and everything was fine and now the bleeding had become worse I have done all my research but I still don't know whether this is normal I have a constant fear of the ius being expelled or displaced and I am just really worried I know it has only been 1 month but I'll just have to see if it improves

I bled for 6 months after the very painful insertion. My period then stopped for 5 months, and I was bleeding heavily for the last 3 months. However, I did not gain weight, get acne or have any changes to my mood. Shame about the bleeding because it would've been perfect!
