Hello
Thanks for your query.
The Mirena is a hormonal device, and after removal of the Mirena Coil, it is common to have abnormal and irregular bleeding as the hormonal levels get adjusted.
Upto 3 months, it is natural to have altered and light bleeding.
However, bleeding after intercourse needs to be investigated.
You could be having cervical polyps, growths, erosions, endometrial polyps etc.
Rarely, the cause of irregular periods could be polycystic ovaries or endometrial hyperplasia.
You need to consult a gynecologist to know the exact cause.
Most probably, the reason for your bleeding and breast soreness is the hormonal alterations following removal of Mirena.
It would self adjust within 3 months of removal, that is within the next month.
Do consult your health care provider though, for confirmation of diagnosis.
Take care, and feel free to ask further questions.
