[quote=Anonymous]I got mine 8 months pp and still breastfeeding. Total coincidence, I got my first pp period the day after I had made the appointment for insertion. My appointment was quickly bumped up as it's easier to insert during a period. I didn't have any issues with low milk supply as a result. I did, however, have non-stop bleeding for two months and then unpredictable spotting for another month or so. Very annoying to bleed almost nonstop for three months and my DH was completely annoyed. I don't blame him. By eleven months pp I finally settled into a regular pattern and now at 14 months pp I get my period predictably. Yes, I still get one and so far it is not shorter or much lighter. I am an endometriosis sufferer and the Mirena has helped tremendously there. That alone makes it worth it. My OB had encouraged the Mirena because the research is apparently quite good on its ability to keep the endometriosis at bay. So far so good.[/quote]
