I'm 8 months post. I had the same bleeding as you, with large clots (yucky ones, almost flesh-like). The first few months after that my periods were really light. They're back to normal now ;) And I'm 95% back to normal now ;)I only suffer from complaints right before and while on my period (nausea, headache, backpain, heart palpitations and irritability) tho these complaints may be contributed to just the period and no longer mirena ;)
