If you've had your IUD replaced ...

... how long afterward did you bleed? I have the copper one (Paragard), if that matters.

I replaced my mirena in October. I was prepared for months of bleeding like when I got my first put in. I bled less than a week. The insertion was way less of an issue too.

The removal wasn’t fun but my strings had gone up so they had to do an ultrasound to confirm it was still there and visualize it. After that, it was a few minutes of translating and out. The panic of “I hope it (and only it) is in there” out weighed any other issues.

Mine was replaced last week and I'm still bleeding. I wasn't sure how normal it was.

I can't compare it to the initial insertion because it was placed during a D&C for 2nd tri pregnancy loss.
