Period cramps / smear
« on: April 19, 2022, 05:25:00 PM »

Hi

I’ve been fairly stable on my HRT regime for nearly 3 years now. I am 56 and I have the Mirena coil fitted and use oestrogel, 1 pump twice a day.  I recently had a smear (my first with a coil fitted) and about 4 days later I had some spotting followed by period cramps 🤔  The cramps have been painful and I can still feel them, it’s now been 2 weeks since I had my smear.  I have been back to see the nurse who examined me and she said the coil was still in place and there is no sign of infection.

They have suggested I have a scan if things don’t improve. 

I just wondered if anybody else have had a similar experience of this after a smear with the coil in place ☺️

Many thanks 😊
