You should contact your doctor right away. An IUD can interfere with a healthy pregnancy.
An IUD does not make your body think that you are pregnant. Depending on your body you may find that your cycle can be extremly heavy for the first 6-8 months and then it tends to slow down. Some women may even loose their cycle after about a year and a half after having the IUD put in place. This doesn't mean that your body thinks its pregnant. Its only because the linning of your uterus has been shed away over that year and the linning does not come back while the IUD is keeping your uterus open. The IUD does not pass out hormones to tell your body that it is pregnant like a real pregnancy. Certain IUD's can have hormones with them but not to the extent of making your body feel pregnant.
The symptoms of pregnancy - fatigue, nausea, frequent urination - are nonspecific, and women (and men) may feel them quite often without being pregnant. If you think you're pregnant, take a pregnancy test.
It's the same as the procedure to remove the IUD when you're not pregnant.
i got pregnant while using an IUD. the IUD had gone through my uterine wall and into my abdominal cavity. my doctor told me not to worry that it would be ok and they would remove it after i had the baby. i lost my baby when i was 18 months pregnant. it was horrible. i had to have 2 surgeries to get the IUD out. i do not recommend IUD's to anyone.Kindly note IUD devices to keep sperm to reach egg theoretically it is just not possibleto get pregnant with correct size IUD placed inside u by expert. If u got pregnancykindly remove it immediately it will certainly not necessary now. Sooner the better
Getting pregnant with an IUD in place is rare but it does happen. If you feel that you may be pregnant with an IUD in place you should take a home pregnancy test and/or see a Dr as soon as possible due to possible health risks to you and to the pregnancy.
No. If the IUD is not expelled by chance, it will continue to give you protection by three years. I have seen the ladies, who have inserted the IUD and then forgotten about the same. This may be detected, may be after five years, when you ask a leading question to her.
Pregnancy on the IUD is unlikely. Getting pregnant during your period is also unlikely. Taken together -- it's possible to get pregnant during your period on the IUD, but it would be a huge shock.
Very poor! Have it removed before thinking about becoming pregnant. Once you have the IUD removed, the statistics are the same for getting pregnant and having a normal pregnancy as if you had never used a contraceptive. If you already are pregnant, you may need to terminate the pregnancy. Please see your doctor!!!
What do you mean by "lower uterus"? Do you mean in the cervix? Or Vagina? In either case, health care professionals (and the Mirena and Paraguard manufacturers) recommend that you call for an appointment after ANY movement of the IUD because YES, you may get pregnant.
Generally the same as when you don't have an IUD. However, some women may not get a period or may have a really light period when they have an IUD and so could look for other signs such as breast tenderness, increase in appetite and fatigue etc. Get a test and check it out!
Yes, the copper IUD can stop working after 5 years if it is one of the brands that only lasts for 5 years. If you're unsure which type of IUD you've got (e.g. whether or not it is the 5 year copper IUD) you may want to consider getting a new IUD, next time maybe consider a 10 year IUD.
If your hormonal IUD is past its useful life, you may not have complete protection. The copper IUD may continue to provide protection. Other than that, there are no special dangers in leaving an expired IUD in the uterus.
