Could Mirena Cause Any Problems In Getting Pregnant?
Hi Dr, I'm 32 years old. I had the marena in for 2 and a half years. (it was removed a week ago) I had a lot of problems. I google and did research and found that I have Candida (for a looooong time). I want to get pregnant, can this causes problems for my unborn child and conceiving?

Dear Ms, the Mirena is a medicated loop that releases progesterone into your body. this leads to decrease the aecreation of endogenous progesterone. I will take some time before your body starts to secreate progesterone again . there will be a delay in getting pregnant of average 6 months after removing the loop
