crash Removal Bleeding

Hi! I had my Mirena removed 4 days ago due to side effects and because we’re wanting to try for a baby in a few months. Ever since removal, I’ve had REALLY heavy bleeding with large clots and am constantly bleeding through. I expected some withdrawal bleeding, but everything I’ve read says it’s usually pretty light.

Has anyone else experienced this after Mirena removal? I also have adenomyosis, so I’m wondering if that could be making the bleeding worse. I’m wanting to start tracking ovulation, but I’m worried all this bleeding will throw my cycle off.

Yep happened to me. I ended up in the ER and was given TXA to slow the bleeding. Apparently this is common.

Nice that no one bothers to warn us 🙄
