Mirena Coil inserted last Tuesday - Cramping is awful
Posted , 3 users are following.
Hi ladies, I had the joys of having a laprascopy and hysteroscopy last Tuesday and also the insertion of a Mirena Coil for heavy bleeding. I have had such awful cramping yesterday and today but yesterdays cramping was the worse, I swear if it had continued any longer I would have gone down to A&E, I've heard that some of the cramping can be labour-level. I have to give it time, I know but I really didn't want it in the first place but 5 mins pre-op the gynaecologist kept really trying to pressurise me into it and made a good point that just a laprascopy alone wouldn't change anything, which is of course true. I have vaginismus so I will not be able to have it removed unless under anaesthetic whether it be local or general. I will not be able to undergo the check up of the strings in 4-6 weeks either which I was not told about either until after it had been inserted. I feel really disappointed and angry that I was told lies about the coil beforehand and not everything was talked through with me. I'd like to ask when and if these cramps subside? I didn't think anything could be worse than the period pains I already had but this is on a whole other level!

I just got my Mirena in January! Yes the pain was TERRIBLE. Nothing I've ever felt and I've never had babies, etc. I to was wondering when the cramping would stop. I'd say for me by the second to third day they were really very light cramping. It was about a week before things really settled down for me. I do still get a few very light random cramps. I understand your pain, it was bad.
On another note I think it's really ridiculous that you weren't told about everything that's involved with the IUD. I'm sorry that has happen to you!
