Hi, I had Mirena put in 4 years ago and just had it removed a month ago. The insertion was painful for abut a minute and after that all seemed fine. I did not have a period for 4 years. However after the first year I started having to urinate frequently....sometimes up to 20 times a day. This would happen weeks at a time and then go away. I went to all my doctors and was finally diagnosed with interstitial cystitis by a urologist. This is a chronic condition that affects the inner wall of the bladder. Even though most doctors do not agree with me, I think that my IUD led to this disease. Has anyone else had this experience??
