Should I Be Concerned About Sudden Black Bleeding And Severe Abdominal And Back Pain While Using Mirena IUD?
Question: Ive had my Mirena IUD for a little over 6 months now. My periods were very light spotting or nothing. I’ve never gotten a heavy period while with Mirena . Today I woke up to black blood in my panties and it was a lot of blood. I start experiencing some cramping. Later on in the day my lower back starts hurting. At the end of the day my lower back and lower abdominal area is aching all over. Should I be concerned?
