Hi alikes 👋 4 months ago, I had the Mirena coil put in, and I was looking for guidance from people who also have the mirena and if its not just me who is experiencing daily cramping pain? I currently need to take pain relief as soon as I leave bed :(

      Have you had a scan? When I first got mine I was in pain, but it wasn't inserted correctly. Now that it is in correctly I don't feel anything. I really like it a lot.

      The mirena iud did not work for me. I kept it in for almost a year because my OBGYN said it can take 6 months to adjust to it and I always have taken longer to adjust to other birth control methods so I thought I could push through. However, that was not the case and I got it removed. I had cramping almost everyday and some days pretty severe. I had it checked a lot to make sure it was placed correctly and everything was ok, and it was. My body just didn’t like it.

      When I had it the first time, I had it removed after 3 months of nonstop bleeding. Got it in October and had it removed in February. So far now I don't have any problems and have it since November. Please speak to your obgyn. Maybe it's not sitting right or your body can't take it

One user mentioned that they experienced cramps every day for 7 months straight after getting the Mirena IUD put in. Another user shared that they are currently 4 months post Mirena placement and taking painkillers for cramps every day. So, you are not alone in experiencing daily cramping pain with the Mirena coil.
