Severe Abdominal, Pelvic, Back Pain After Inserting Mirena, Irregular Bleeding, Lost Interest In Sex. Cure?

I had the mirena iud inserted about 7 months ago after my 2nd child was born. I have been having extremely bad pains in my lower abdominal area and upper pelvic area along with extreme back pain to where I have I can barely walk. I was diagnosed with sciatica before and had endrometriosis several times in the past but nevdr felt anything like this. I still bleed irregular, have a loss of sexual interest, sensitve chest area along with irritability and frequent headaches. Any suggestions or pointers? I must also say I have epilepsy so some meds do counteract with most birth controls.

Hi,
Thanks for the query.
Some amount of irregular spotting can be seen with IUCDs.
And women with IUCD are more prone for infections.
So, better to consult gynecologist once and get examined.
Undergo ultrasound once to check the intra uterine position of the IUCD and to rule out any pelvic infection.
In case of pelvic infection you may need one course of antibiotics.
After ruling out the pelvic infection, you can continue with symptomatic treatment.
If the symptoms persist or become severe, you may need to get remove the IUCD.
And can continue with non hormonal contraceptives like barrier methods, physiological methods etc.
