Does your IUD sometimes make you feel like you have to go to the bathroom more?

I've had the mirena for about a week, and lately at night I've been getting a false sense of needing to pee.

Anyone else have that experience? Does it go away after a while?

Even if it doesn't go away; I'll just learn to live with it, because it's still the best BC option for me...I was just curious.

Update:

Squishy - thanks for your concern - but yeah, I'm very familiar with what a UTI feels like, and kidney stones, and I was tested for diabetes when I was pregnant not too many months ago.

I think it's mostly a slight tickling sensation that the IUD is causing that's confusing me.

    that is unusual. It shouldn't be making you need to do that.

    Question, is it a false sense of needing to pee, or if you went and sat down would you really need to.

    I'm asking that cause if you really do need to pee, it could be something else. Diabetes makes you need to do that.

    also bladder infections, prostate problems, and a whole host of other medical problems. You gotta make sure your blaming it on the right thing. but if it is what you think it is, that is not normal that I know of
