After suffering from really heavy periods, I had the mirena fitted 7 weeks ago. Since then I've had recurring bleeding every day both heavy and light. However the stomach cramps are the worst. I'm becoming addicted to painkillers and brandy which I take to relieve the pain. My little girl is fed up of seeing her mum sat with a hot water bottle complaining of pain. The doctor says it's just my body settling down and blames my hormones. They've given me Norethisterone to take for 3 months but I'm unsure what to do. All I know is the periods were better than the pain I'm in now and I'm truly fed up!!
