Hello,
If your fibroids are multiple and distort the cavity,then you may need to have a hysterectomy after all. Mirena usually works well with DUB and small fibroids. Its too early to declare failure of Mirena since it hasnt been long inserted. But of the size of the uterus is too big,then Mirena has a chance of coming out spontaneously. You may need added progesterone if the bleeding isnt stopped.
