Here is my story hope it helps i had mirena removed June 4th i also did not get AF but durring the last 6 months of having it before removal i did have a period. Well on June 30th i had my first AF it was super heavy with tons of clots and it lasted 8 days way longer then my regular AF. i got pregnant right away got a BFP on july 13th but sadly it ended in a chemical pregnancy, I havent had AF since and now i am waiting to get my Af again to start charting and jump on hte ttc train in November.

Not sure if this helps? I had mine removed in August 2011 and didnt really have a 'proper' period until november. I never had one period for the whole 5 years neither. My periods were really weird after first having it out, heavy, light, heavy, my body would never make its mind up lol. Since regulating my periods are loads better. I would say get some OPK tests and start doing your BBT as this really helped. Good luck!! x

Sorry meant to add that although i was having 'periods' i would be heavy one day, gone the next and 4 days later period again......should proof read lol

hi i had my mirenan out on the 12th august, i bled for 4 days, i then worked out i should have ovulated on the 28th of august, but on a whim after what i believe was the mirena crash i had loads of pregnancy syptoms ect so i decided to take a pregnancy test on the 23rd, it was negative, so because i was aching i tried and ovulation test it was a very dark strong positive! i was shocked 5 days early, since then i have just waiting to see if my AF turns up or wether im pregnant.
also you dont have to have AF to ovulate, so go ahead and BD anyway just incase. keep track of your CM and judge from that when to use your OPK's i know for me the 4/5 days before i ovulate i am very wet down there and i feel in the mood all the time. also i read, although not scientifically researched or proven, that the chances of multiple pregnancy is higher just after mirena removal because it can cause hyperovulation. x x

I also had tons of pregnancy symptoms and by looking at the charting of my CM it looks as though I could have ovulated on the 19th so my day to test would have been Sept. 2nd (I did test before that date and of course all BFNs) I did not test on the 2nd because of the bleeding I had on the 1st. This whole TTC thing is new to me since my 9 year old was a complete ooops and I got pregnant while on the birth control pill. Can you please explain to me how the OPK's work and when to use them, and should I still use them while having this random bleeding? My husband and I BD often actually (we are like teenagers) his method of TTC is skip the charting and figuring out ovulation and just BD everyday that way you never miss the right day. I guess I am just to excited to wait it out. And multiples and hyperovulation?!?!?!? That would be AMAZING i have always wanted twins!!
