I have the copper IUD, not Mirena, but from what I understand it's perfectly normal that once your body adjusts to the hormones your period may stop altogether. At the very least, most women have short, lighter periods with Mirena. You don't have anything to worry about as long as you aren't having any other symptoms or side effects.
