Hi I think you should consult a gynecologist for complete examination. You can use some medicines like tranexamic acid to stop the bleeding. If it doesn't work, you can take high dose of progesterone to stop the bleeding. It can be a side effect of mirena. It will resolve on its own. Hope it helps.
