How Long Did It Take You to Get Pregnant After You Had Your Mirena IUD Removed?

I just recently got my IUD removed in hopes to have another child. I am curious to find out how long it took other women to get pregnant after the Mirena was taken out. Also, did you have any bad cramping or bleeding after removal? Thanks for any advice.

What can I do next?

So What Happened?™

I just wanted to say thanks to everyone for sharing their own experiences with the Mirena IUD. It is reassuring to see that most people had no problems getting pregnant after it was removed. I hope the same is true for myself. Wish me luck! If anyone else has any more advice, please do share it!

Hey J.,
I had a hard time w/ my IUD. I had it in for just over a year and the last 5 months of it in, were really uncomfortable. I know this is my own experience and I hope that yours is different but I had to go in because it was causing a lot of discomfort and cramping. I had really intense periods for the next 2 months and it took us about 6 months upon removal to get pregnant. Hopefully yours will be a different experience and you'll get pregnant as soon as you want.
PS-We LOVE camping and have similar beliefs as you mentioned....did you camp at any good spots this summer?
Thanks!

I had some very slight cramping and a tiny bit of spotting and we got pregnant two months after it was taken out. It was actually faster then my two previous attempts at getting pregnant after stopping the pill. Everything seemed to go quite smoothly, uneventful pregnancy, and a healthy baby.Good luck!

Hi J.!
I had my Mirena IUD removed Jan 31st after having it in place for 5 years. I was pregnant in March, I'm due Jan 31st 2009. This is my third pregnancy with a 7 & * year old. Good Luck!

I waited 2 months after it was taken out before trying to get pregnant again, and then it only took 1 or 2 cycles.

No cramping - no bleeding and my midwife said that it could take anywhere from 3-months to a year. It only took 2 1/2 weeks after she took it out. Good Luck!

I had the copper IUD before my 3 yo, and concieved after 1 cycle. Then had the Minera before my 1 yo, and concieved within 3 months. Good luck! As for the cramping, I thought it was worst going in than coming out.

I had the Mirena removed in April, had alot of bleeding for a month, and was pregnant by June! Good Luck!
