New Bleeding with my IUD

Unread post by Meggyd18 »

I have the Liletta IUD and I've had it for almost 2 years. Just recently I got my cycle back, and I've had about three periods. This time however, my period won't stop. It's been 2 weeks long. It's very light spotting but I don't know why it won't stop. Is this cause for concern?

Hi Meggyd18,

Irregular or very frequent spotting or bleeding is a potential side effect of the IUD, so it's possible that's what's happening here. However, if it's really stressing you out, I would call your healthcare provider and talk with them about it, just to get a sense of whether there could be something else going on.
And you to whom adversity has dealt the final blow/with smiling bastards lying to you everywhere you go/turn to and put out all your strength of arm and heart and brain/and like the Mary Ellen Carter rise again.
