Had Mirana IUD placed a month ago. I need a tampon because I'm bleeding so heavy.?

I know it's normal to spot bleed for up to a year of getting the Mirana IUD. But I'm not spotting, I'm having a light period everyday......I'm needing to wear a panty liner and tampons. The whole reason I got the IUD was to help my very heavy monthly flow. I would rather have a really bad week bleeding than a nonstop period. It's ruining my sex life with my husband too.

My question, is it normal to bleed so much with placement of the Mirana? The doctor made it sound like a little spotting.
