Brown Discharge Throughout The Month, Two Periods In A Cycle Post Mirena Insertion. Will It Gradually Stop?

I m in my early 40 s; have had two successful pregnancies. I ve been on Mirena for 4 months and having brown discharge on most days. It s not a lot, it s just there. I think What is the cause? Also, I think I have had my period twice b/c the discharge is bright red (like a normal period). The bleeding has lessened quite a bit since the insertion; but, the brown discharge is getting annoying. Will it stop?

Hi .some irregularity of the cycle and discharge off and on is normal after insertion of Mirena. You may consult your dr. and get a local examination done and a pap smear if she recommends. You may also take a course of vaginal tablets and treatment according to pap report.
Thanks.
