hello I inserted Mirena on June 11 for very abundant cycle and polyp formations; although I had performed surgery to remove them, they reformed, I took progesterone tablet for 5 months to lengthen the distance of the cycle between one month and the next because it came back to me almost every 15 days;
Is it possible that after a month I still have my period, I haven't been cleaned even a day? and for how much longer? Help I'm desperate

I understand your concerns and frustrations about prolonged bleeding after the Mirena IUD is inserted.
Irregular bleeding is a common side effect in the first months after Mirena is inserted, especially in women with heavy periods. The period of adaptation of the body to the Mirena IUD can last from 3 to 6 months. During this time, prolonged or irregular bleeding may occur. Mirena is often used to treat heavy periods and can help reduce bleeding in the long term.
In your case, given your history of polyps and frequent cycles, your body may need more time to adjust to the new hormonal balance.
In this situation, please consult the gynaecologist who placed the IUD. Prolonged bleeding may require additional evaluation.
If you have doubts about this situation, it is always worth consulting a doctor who can provide more personalized advice. If you are not able to make a face-to-face visit, I attach a link to the online teleconsultation:
