Reason For Abdominal Tugs After Using Mirena?

Hi, so I've had my mirena since dec. of last year. I've been feeling like tugs or something in my abdomen since January. I got my 2nd month chech up an it was still in place. The thing is I'm craving all the time and it's like nothing con tempts me? You believe this is a mirena side effect or something else?}

Hi. Mirena is a hormonal IUD releasing progesterone all time. It causes few months to adjust with Mirena in the form of abnormal bleeding, cramps or pain lower abdomen . However it will settle in few months. You can consult your dr. and get treatment for that. But get one urine routine ex. to rule out UTI and also PID (any pelvic infection).
Thanks.
