Hello, Kavitha! How are you doing? I'm sorry about the problem that you're having.

Unfortunately, the Mirena IUD doesn't resolve bleeding issues for everyone that tries it, as a matter of fact, it can cause irregular or prolonged bleeding in some women.

So yes, you may be better of with oral contraceptive tablets, since they usually contain both estrogens and progesterone and can better balance your hormones.

Is there anything else I can help with?
