Can losing weight cause regular periods even if you have an IUD and stopped having periods for the first 2 years?
I am not sure but this just happened to me. I have had an IUD (Mirena) for 4 years and had not been having any periods. Recently, I lost almost 40 lbs and now I am having a regular period.
You gave had the paragard IUD for 4 years you are one month late for your period and you are now experiencing light spotting you have taken hpts but they are all negative Any chance you still could be?
If you are using the IUD, have spotting, and have multiple negative pregnancy tests, pregnancy is not a likely explanation.
I have had an IUD coil in for 5 years now started to have a lot of pain should the coil be taken out?
Go immediately to the doctor to have this assessed. Any pain or discharge associated with an internal device such as an IUD or coil should be checked immediately. Infections and physical damage from these can be permanently damaging or fatal.
Who can get an IUD?
Any woman interested in a long-term, reversible, highly effective method of birth control can get an IUD. There are two on the market in the US right now, and they have some differences in mode of action and patient selection criteria. In general, a woman who is a good candidate for an IUD has no allergies to the components of the IUD, and has a uterus long enough to accommodate the device.

you have had the IUD for 6yrs hardly ever bleed but now you have been bleeding for 2 weeks?
You have an IUD and about four weeks ago you had a biopsy done on your cervix now you are 3 weeks pregnant is there any way that the doctor moved the IUD?
I would consult a health clinic and ask them to get a 2nd opinion. You will need to find a doctor that it is not in the same health system as they usually stick together. Alternately, get an ultrasound and find out if the IUD is at the fundus. If so, the doctor didn't move the IUD.
I Had an IUD for 10 years an now want a baby?
There's nothing special you need to do. Have the IUD removed, if you haven't already done so, and start having sex. Among couples who previously used the IUD, 85% will get pregnant within the first year -- the same percentage as among couples who never used any birth control. Start taking folic acid daily if you're not yet doing so, and see your health care provider to see if any preconception testing or immunizations are required.
You are having a leep procedure with the Mirena IUD is there anyone that can tell you of their experiences with the IUD?
Just had the LEEP surgery... They had to take out the Mirena because of the string...Now I have to pay over 800 just to get a new IUD put in.
You removed your own paragard IUD Went perfectly except you are now 2 days late Is it at all possible you got pregnant That quick Help?
You should never remove your own IUD. You should seek a doctor immediately to test to see if you are pregnant and have your IUD or a new IUD inserted. Removal of an IUD can almost immediately leave you prone to pregnancy.
Can copper t IUD stay for 15 years in your uterus?
The concept that women who have insertion of a TCu 380A IUD at the age of 25 years or older could use this IUD as a reversible but permanent method of contraception up to the menopause continues to be supported by the accumulation of evidence, although definitive evidence remains to be obtained. The FDA has approved the Paragard for 10 years, but research shows that it is good for 12 and counting. Reputable contraceptive information sites now list it as good for twelve years. Ob/gyns are beginning to leave them in longer, in particular for women approaching menopause. Several women on the IUDiva's forum report having them in for as long as 15 years. As of January 2012, the manufacturer of the Paragard Copper T IUD recommends replacing it after ten years. Please consult your medical care provider to see what will work best for you.
What kind of instrument do doctors use to remove a copper IUD and How do they get ahold of the IUD without damaging the uterus?
Well, I had my copper IUD out three days ago. I have had it for 6 or 7 years and absolutely LOVE IT! With the exception that I am one of the like 5% that got an infection from having the IUD. There were NO symptoms to this infection and it showed up in a routine pap. Anyway, that is why I had to have my IUD taken out. Now to answer your question , at least in my case, all they used were what I believe they call hemastats??? not sure. any way they are like a very thin needle nose plier. Everyone told me this wouldn't hurt. Dont get me wrong it did not hurt BAD. but it did feel rather uncomforitable when they took it out. maybe it was because of the infection that I had. They had no problem pulling it out. Maybe they would have used more tools if they had a problem.
