Have Mirena. Spotting, Cramping. Normal?

I've had mirena for almost two years, and very light spotting for my periods. My current period is the heaviest it's been since had mirena, I'm also experiencing a lot of cramping on my right side and nausea. I checked my strings and it feels a lot longer, but I'm not sure if it's because of my period. Should I get this checked out or is this normal? Thank you!

Hi,
Thanks for writing to us.
Since you have been on minera last 2 yrs. and you are having only light spotting and suddenly you have heavy spotting and cramping, it may be because of minera or may be because of something else.
You may consult a gynaecologist for proper examination.
Good luck.
Take care.
