Mirena Inserted After A Medical Abortion. Lower Back Pain . Is It Normal?
I had a medical abortion 4 days ago and had a Mirena inserted after. My doctor said that it might take a few days for my body to adjust to it. I am having some lower back pain but no cramping at all. I have to take Advil for the back pain and it s just on one side. Is that normal? Also, I have been having some brown discharge that I think smells a little bit funny.

Hello.
Thanks for writing to us.
The mild pain in the lower back and a brownish discharge after insertion of mirena coil is a normal response. These symptoms are likely to subside gradually in next two weeks without any specific treatment.
