... cramp and very slight spotting after the removal. Was that normal?. I am no longer on any birth control, should I be worried about getting pregnant. Had the coil removed on Friday 3rd of February 2017. Experience belly cramp on the Saturday. Saw a little blood on toilet tissue of and on for 2 days. Nothing since then. Have been sexually active with my husband since then. Should I be worried about pregnancy?. Will be 57 in 3 weekes
I am 56 yrs old. Just had my Mirena removed after 5 yrs. Had no period in all that 5 yrs. Had belly?

Seriously, pregnancy at 57 is pretty unusual. If the coil was a hormonal variety rather than the toxic copper ones, you are probably adjusting to different hormone levels. I'm not sure at all how birth control would effect a post-menopausal woman.
