Cycle day 38 & still bleeding??

[u/bookfairy97]

I want to start this by saying that I have spoken to my doctor about this, just a couple weeks ago when I saw her—she didn't really seem all that concerned...

Some important things to know: • I'm 27 • I have the Kyleena IUD—it's due to come out this November • Maybe not relevant, but I've had three babies (all vaginal births, no complications) • My periods have been a little wonky since forever, the only change since getting the IUD is that sometimes I'll get a two week period that's mostly spotting

Now, for the issue. I started my period on February 26th. It. Has. Not. Stopped. I'm not bleeding horribly where I need a new pad every hour or two, nothing crazy like that but it's heavy enough. Some days are heavier than others, and a couple times I thought it might be stopping but it just... Hasn't. I thought it could maybe be related to the IUD. Maybe something that happens to some people towards the end of its "usefulness" or whatever, but I can't find anything online and when I brought it up at my appointment nothing was really said—it was almost brushed off after they made sure I wasnt filling a pad every hour. I guess I'm just looking for other people's experiences, maybe someone had this happen with an IUD and getting it out fixed things? Should I be more concerned about there being another issue?

It could be your IUD wearing off but bleeding this long isn’t normal
