[|Human|] Hi. I got the mirena on may 15th, 6 weeks after having my baby, so about 6 weeks ago. Its down to minimal bleeding but a dark long string of blood comes out every now and then. I am also losing ALOT of weight and am hardly ever hungry. And have been having stomach pain(but I think that is from not eating) anyways is it normal to have really long dark strings of blood come out?
[|AI|]  Hi, Thanks for the query. Usually some amount of spotting can be seen 4 to 6 weeks after delivery. But the dark blood you are seeing at present could be due to IRENA side effect. If the bleeding continues, better to consult gynecologist once and get examined. You may need one ultrasound also. Then you can take tablets to control the bleeding and possibly the menstrual flow will get regularized in next cycles.
