Had my Mirena inserted 7 months ago and have bled every day since minus a handful. Was put on the combined pill 11 days ago and it has not helped at all yet.
The doctor said I should go back if the bleeding does not stop, as it isn't hormonal. How long should i give the pill to work on my body?
Mirena: 7 months bleeding and combined pill won't stop it. Help me figure out what to do!?

Just curious if you are taking the pill with the mirena or did you have your mirena removed? I had mine removed one week ago and got on low dose combo pill. Looking for someone I can compare notes with about my horrible transition from one to the other. I hope you are better than when you posted.
