Contraception

Is it normal to have no period on Mirena? Gynecologist in Seoul, Korea

The short answer

Yes. Mirena's hormone thins the uterine lining, so many women have very light periods or none at all after the first months. This is safe, does not mean blood is building up, and periods usually return after removal. If you have pregnancy symptoms, take a test to be sure.

See Mirena.
