I was sleeved Feb 14th and I had had mirena for about 3 years and never had any issues with it. Since being sleeved I have been having a dark bloody discharge. Its not a lot b ut always there when I wipe. Anyone else had this issue with mirena that has been a long time prior to surgery? If so how long before it went away?

I have mirena and I haven't had those issues, I did get a mild bladder infection a few weeks after surgery, but nothing else really. Maybe it's just your body doing an abnormal menstrual cycle after surgery.

It might be from any blood thinners you were given in te hospital. Did you have injections in your abdomen? (Heparin or Lovenox)....

I had the same issue after surgery. But I was on depo shot. Had a period for 12 days finally had to have a D&C done to have it clear up. Call your obgyn is its too long. Mine got worse as the days went by.

Our fat cells are full of hormones when u start losing they let go of the hormones causing all kinds of womanly issues. But they will get better.

I did not get any blood thinners when I was conscious anyway lol

And I have never had issues before with it so that is why I was surprised.

Thank you all for your input

Hi, I also have a mirena and I was sleeved on the 1st feb 13. I started my period on the 7th and have been on a period since (its been a over 10 days now) I'm just noticing the bleeding is started to stop maybe the next 2 days or so and I should be finished! It's been a nightmare!!

Yeah I noticed mine as soon as I got to use the bathroom aftdr surgery. And its more of a brownish color the whole time. Maybe I will wait it out a little longer and if its not gone I will call obgyn. I will definitely be asking my surgeon at follzow appointment next week
