Hello madam, from the history you have given, mirena contains the progesterone, levonorgestrel which does causes side effects like break through bleeding, nausea, breast tenderness.But in case the symptoms worsen, you may have to consult your gynaecologist, wherein you may require an examination to see if mirena is in its proper position, and everything is fine . hope i was helpful to you.
