TMI Question...

Options
Hi all,

I have had my Mirena IUD for about 4+ years now and have not had a period since then (well b/t pregnancies and breastfeeding really since 2004). It seems when I up my weights for squats or dead lifts I spot afterward. It is just when I go to the bathroom and wipe but nothing major. Nothing that shows up on a pantyliner, either.

Just curious if anyone has this issue. It lasts a day and then no problems again until I up my weights (I upped my dead lifts from 125/8 to 135/8 today).

Again, TMI - sorry :sick:

    I have a Mirena and don't get real periods either. It is not uncommon for me to spot a little bit after a hard workout.

    I don't have an IUD, but I spot after hard workouts every so often. It's very annoying. I've read that it's a sign of overexertion (for me it's not hard to do as I am not in great shape).

    I also have a Mirena and no period, and my OB told that spotting was normal with heavy exertion.
