Hello ma'am.

There could be three main reasons for your presentation:
-a hormonal imbalance wich could have been caused by the mirena (although removed)
-infections
-pregnancy

In such a scenario I would advice you to first repeat the home pregnancy test, this time using an early morning urine sample, and to be conducted at least 2 weeks after your last sexual encounter.

Once pregnancy has completely been ruled out you would have to get a urine examination, vaginal swab test and a blood test to check on hormone levels. Please request your doctor for the same.

Hope this helps.

Best wishes.
