Is There A Possibility That Sharp Pain In Abdomen Is Related To Mirena IUD?

Hi there I hv a medical question. I hv no health insurance and am trying to figure out what is going in with my body. I was having right side lower abdomen pain I figured was associated with abdominal exercises from a week and a half ago. Lol but last night I sat up out of bed quickly and felt an intently sharp pain that caused me to yelp. Sleep was difficult, rolling over was painful, coughing, sneezing and laughing is also painful ... As is stretching.
I took a pregnancy test on Monday and it came back negative. I currently hv had the mirena iud since sept or oct of 2013. If you could let me know what this couple possible be I would be so thanks ful!

Hello M and welcome.

Well, there are 2 most common side effects of the mirena IUD, pain and bleeding.

Bleeding is not considered important or serious enough for the indication of removal. Whereas, pain is a strong indication for the removal of the IUD. So please do report to your doctor for the same.

Hope this helps.

Best wishes.
