As a matter of fact, I just had mine removed today!
I am trying to remember, I think I had spotting for a pretty long time, several weeks in fact. My doctor didn't say anything about waiting for the bleeding to stop before we had sex again. I actually ended up still having irregular, really light periods and spotting the whole time I had it - they only lasted maybe 3 days.

You're not going to like hearing this, but I spotted/bled for about 8 weeks after insertion. And that was directly after bleeding for 8+ weeks postpartum. My doc never said anything about not having sex. I was still so tired after having #2 that it wasn't happening too much anyway lol.
Re: How long did you bleed after getting Mirena?
