I'm exactly the same. Never had any STI, BV or Thrush...lucky me. Have the mirena coil fitted due to fibroid bleeding. I have developed an odour that is distressing me beyond despair! Tried all options metronidazole- all clear, comes back. Douche with Apple cider vinegar, comes back. Used canesbalance for BV, good but comes back. It's awful and GP says it's likely caused by my coil. Jeez...sort one problem for another. Coil fitted January 2017...it's June 2018 and yet to settle. Seems unlikely, it's so distressing.

My 2nd mirena been in over 3 years now, 1st one all good with no complaints (only used for cramping pain so very worried to have it removed as pain will return and to change it out at my expense, I fear the replacement would have the same smelly issue)...the smell is the only complaint i have with this one...Have written to the manufacturer who suggest their formula hasn't changed in 10 years with no further information and only suggests to see my GP...

I’ve had my IUD put in about 4 months ago, it’s June 26th 2018 and the smell of rotting meat accompanied by brown, liquidy discharge. SMELLS LIKE SOMETHING IS DECAYING UP THERE!! WORSE SMELL IVE EVER SMELT. I’ve NEVER had this issue in my life until now and it’s RUINING MY LIFE! I’ve read all the comments start to finish & I FEEL for you ladies. I had sex after taking a shower thinking nothing was going to happen and as soon as my dude was about to finish I SMELT THE ROTTEN ODOR!! I was so damn embarrassed I wanted to cry! I got him & I into the shower before he could even notice and I turned on the fan so the smell could go away. I don’t even want to have sex with him because of this which SUCKS because I want to be intimate but with this smell HELLS TO THE FREAKEN NO!!!!!!! I have an appt on Wednesday the 28th to have it OUT!!!!! I need my life back to normal. I’ve been wearing a light tampon EVER SINCE THE DAMN SMELL CAME BECAUSE I DONT WANT TO BE AT WORK SMELLIN UP THE PLACE! This IUD has been a F’N NIGHTMARE! NEVER AGAIN!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!

I have also been experiencing the same symptoms since getting my Mirena put in about 7 months ago! The Odor is starting to get worse, I have been to the doctor a few times about it. One doctor put my on antibiotics for the BV. I also spoke to my gynaecologist about it as she said it was just the uterus cleaning itself out and gave me an ointment to insert in to help. I now believe it is the Mirena causing it so i am considering get it removed as I don’t want to continue having this problem as it is too embarrassing

That happens to me too sometimes, and it's just spotting. It's like a mini period. The reason why it's a brownish tan color is because it's old blood. Blood turns brown once it dries.

Same issues, I realized it was my implant when I did a check for the strings, the smell lingered at the tips of my fingers and it clicked. I get sporadic periods, maybe 3 a year, and the smell comes after the period. At this time I’ll take a bath and kinda douch with water. This immediately makes the smell better. Idk if it’ll work for everyone but it’s been helping me.

This smell was almost making me run mad. I was so worried that maybe my partner could smell it too but he din't want to tell me. The IUD is good and so convenient but considering the severe cramps and the smell, am going to start considering removing it. Am so happy I found this otherwise I had started thinking that I had an infection. Thanks so much for sharing. It has been of great help

I've just been in touch with family planning who suggest BV and a course of antibiotics will fix it...I avoid antibiotics as much as i can and will be for this as many above suggest the smell reoccurs after treatment...I asked if there was a remedy for the painful craps I was getting (the reason I have mirina)... no answer was given as assuming they really have no idea and as informative as the manufacturers who's only suggestion was to see my GP who knows nothing about mirena and so suggested family planning...will have an appointment with them soon

OMFG YOU ARE NOT ALONE!!
I have had my IUD in for 7 years now & I have been made fun of, given advice about my hygiene and even had relationship problems because of it. I have gotten tested for everything under the moon and also bought every fem product known to man!! NOTHING WORKED. I met my fiance 4 years ago and he stuck by my side helping me figure out what is wrong until he brought up my IUD. Now I have an appointment to get it taken out and just use the pill. Thank you ladies for the help! I had no idea it could've been my IUD.
