Oo ok, the Dr said I would still have ovulated on the mirena but because of the hormones it releases in the womb the lining doesn't thicken so often people get no AF because of that, I don't know if that's just the reaction with some people or what, she didn't say anything about spotting, so I assumed i would ovulate before getting any bleeding but no, although there hasn't been that much.
Is there anything I can do to encourage O to return? And should I contact my dr about that if I don't after 6 weeks or so?
I would wait 90 days with no sign of O or AF before seeing a dr. Sooner only if you're still spotting.
I've never heard of it being possible to O on the mirena without a lining/AF. That seems so unlikely to me, but I will go read up on it!
supposedly it's possible, the hormones keep the lining from forming/sloughing for some peopl and then the presence of the IUD itself makes your uterus so irritable that nothing can implant.
Honestly, I'm not totally convinced they know HOW it works.
