The 'OFFICIAL' Ex Mirena Thread

[melsy_11]

oh noooo heard that they are common once mc removal as are cysts i have 5 days of antibiotics left, i have never visited my drs soo much lol, normally once a yr but since ttc about 5 times so far i have heard of this poas addiction

Am i anxious you ask! very anxious cant CUM soon enough and yes definately sept if af hurrys herself up

You know I could of swore I had a cyst in March one month after my mirena removal, I think that's why I was having really short spotty a/fs also. I'm the same way about the Dr. never usually go besides once a year and this year I have been tons! Lol I'm sure you will join the club! I don't know why it's so addicting because it's kind of disappointing once you see a bfn, I guess it's the chance of seeing that that keeps you doing it lol
HAHA you are funny hun!! Do you have it all planned out, like a ttc plan? Lol I just read recently that you should start 6 days before ovulation

I have nothing planned and will go to pieces when af arrives really though, i have a cbfm im going to start using and also i will start ff charting, as far as we need to start a little earlier than 6 days before ov as with dh having a lsc we need to build his

lol, I can't wait, I'm excited for you! When do you think you'll start testing on your first 2 ww? Nothing wrong with earlier than 6 days Hopefully you'll be one of those lucky ones that doesn't have to wait to long for a

I love this thread though it's so nice to talk to ladies who are ttc, my friend's don't get it all and it drives insane how insensitive they can be sometimes!

Aww bless you yes this is a lovely thread hun, makes you feel your not alone in ttc im also addicted to watching baby programmes taking up all the planner
i feel im not going to be one of the lucky ones who concieve really quickly and i will be ecstatic if i am but also hopeful if not, then there is the worry of miscarriage once i do concieve with past experience trying to stay positive though. Im going to leave testing as long as possible if i can, easier said than done i suppose but i will try, im just hoping i can pick up on when im ov will be like then

Im also excited for you hun and counting down with you

exactly, so nice to have! Aw definitely try to stay positive though! I have the fear of having another ectopic so any little twinge I always find myself worrying, try not to think about it too much, once I get my bfp I have to go back to my dr. right away and start having my bloods drawn every other day until they can confirm the pg is in the right place, so nerve wracking! I'm trying to wait until next wednesday, lol we'll see how that goes. I think I've come to know my body really well when it comes to "o", you probably won't have any trouble with everything you have!! Is your OH as excited as you??

 

[Calasen]

Well that was a worthless trip!!!

Apprently - its normal to go without 2 periods!!!!! And theres nothing the NHS (or private) services will do for us until we have been trying for 2 yrs now??????? Thats a new one on me!!!!

But they did say to come back when i get to day 21 of my cycle!!!! WTF??????

As you can imagine I am pretty much fuming right now as well as being devestated!!

I cant do this anymore i really cant then the cow told me to lose weight!!! -- I'd lost 2 stone!!! and in the past 2 monthshave regained it all!!!!!!

 

[Gemini85]

Hope you dontr mind me butting in!
I would look at chaging GPs Calasen?
I have just suffered a mc at 6+4 following mirena removal in feb/march, i thought i had been really lucky falling straight away!
been googling it and it seems to be REALLY common! Thinking i should never have had it in now!

 

[pdmcd17]

Calsen hon I'm so sorry to hear sometimes drs suck they don't get the emotional toll it takes on us and that we want answers right away. My prayers are with you

Afm I'm on cycle day 14 which means if I ov I'm either 3-6 dpo, and 10 days till af shows up. I'm semi optimistic as oh has been performing amazing no finishing problems.
I guess I will know in 10 days or so

 

[melsy_11]

Calasen, I'm sorry hun!! That just sounds ridiculous, and 2 years?! I've never heard of that before? Why do they want you to come back on cd21? That is just awful hun, so sorry you are having such a terrible time right now!!
Welcome Laura, sorry for you loss hun.
Pdmcd17, fingers crossed this is your month!

 

[Gemini85]

thanks! been stalking calasen for a while! 2 years is ridiculous and wayyy more than national average!!! How they can tell you missing two is normal i dont know! ive only ever heard of it with PCOS... x

 

[gabbyskyy]

Hi ladies! I'm new to this thread. I'm actually new to BNB. I had my Mirena removed June 8th of this year after 7 years! I'm praying that it hasn't messed my body up too badly, considering there's not much long term research done on this IUD. The entire time I had the Mirena I suffered from anxiety and just didn't feel right. Glad to say that I'm getting back to my old self.

Not so glad to say that my periods are not getting back to normal! I had initial "withdrawal bleeding" 2 days after the removal and I blead for 9 days with heavy clots. The heaviest period I've ever had! I was bleeding through a super tampon and pad every hour or so! I was pretty much stuck in my house.

I then got a normal period 3 weeks later that lasted 4 days. Great! Then i had a cycle of 47 days! I had no idea if I was even ovulating. So, I started OPK's this last cycle and I got a positive CD18. We BD'd that evening, so hopefully I will have good news. I'm still just worried it might end up in MC. Do y'all think that my uterus shed enough to stick by now?

I'm glad to have found this forum, just knowing I'm not alone feels good.

 

[melsy_11]

Welcome to the thread Gabby! Hope you have alot of luck!

 

[Gemini85]

Hi gabby. My prob was that I shed so much I now don't seem to be thickening up AT ALL! I'm ovulating, and got bfp, but not enough to hang on to it would seem! Me and the DH are so desperate that he has left his job in Iraq so we can try every month rather then 4 times a year! He lands tomorrow, thank goodness. Couldn't cope with the thought we couldn't even try again for 3 months!! X

 

[Calasen]

welcome Laura and Gabby XX

They want me to go in on day 21 for a ovulation check (which they have already done tbh)

I can't change dr's really as my main one (not who i saw today) is a specialist in my medical condition and it took long enough to finds him.

But I have contacted the NHS direct site for more advice and they have given me lots of suggestions, will be pestering my main Dr next week - I need a break from medical stuff right now.

I don't get why they are saying 2 years either as I have many health issues that can and do affect fertility and my main Dr told me to come back after the first year so not best pleased right now.

I already have PCOS & Endo and have been on NSAID's for a very long time due to severe depression which can lower fertility. I also have severe CFS and Fibromyalgia and Myofacial Pain Syndrome all 3 of which again can cause serious fertility issues

Hence why we were originally told one year

---



Well, we have come to a decision, we are not gonna let this confusion of the past 2 months put us off.

We have a friends wedding in Scotland in October and if no period before then, then we are going to use this time to focus on us for a while and if still nothing after that then we go back and demand help from Dr.

Hi Laura welcome to this lovely group......

Im so sorry to hear about your mc i think its 50/50 as i too have read on google that its common but also i have read a lot of success stories, my friend being one of them! im very eager in ttc and i only had my coil removed 2 weeks ago, im just wondering whether i should try straight away or wait

Welcome Gabby to this lovely group it certainly is lovely having knowing your not alone! i found the mirena did wonders for me as i used to suffer really bad stomache pains on my cycle and it stopped all that, it was only when i had it removed i realised it had been causing me anxiety and depression, i did not link it to the mirena as i have suffered depression before but since removal i feel like a big weight has been lifted

My friend got her BFP on her 2nd cycle after mirena removal and she is due very soon, i know exactly how you feel regarding fear of mc and so do most ladies on this forum but i strongly believe that everything happens for a reason! my gp told me to wait for 2 cycles so the lining has chance to thicken.........

Lots of to you

Lets all try to stay positive! i seriously think PMA is something we are all lacking....i understand you cant help but worry because your 1st one ended in ectopic and you automatically fear its going to happen again! like me with mc's but i have 3 children to prove that and to never give up hope regarding my OH, he made it clear from the beginning of our relationship that he did not want anymore children and i accepted that because i felt that with my age i was too old but as time went by and i knew i was nearing the menopause i just started longing for another it took a while to talk my OH round but he could see how much it was upsetting me and voila...here we are! he is as excited as me and talks about it much more than i dreamed he would bless him

 

[gabbyskyy]

Calasen- So sorry you're having issues, how long did you have Mirena for? are any of your conditions an effect from having the IUD

Lullaby- I agree we should all stay positive. I have read many forums and like you said it's 50/50. I'm just glad to have that thing out of me! who knows what it's doing to our bodies! Each woman is different, so it may have one effect on one person and have no effect on another.

Hi Lauren! How long did you have mirena and when did you get it taken out? god bless your husband for serving our country and that's awesome that he's able to fly back for your baby makin time! I'm hoping that I shed enough lining for the eggy to stick! That's if I'm even able to get pregnant, that is. Well lets all keep posted on here! It's great to have a support system when nobody else understands.
