What problems can occur when pregnant with an IUD?

Answer 1

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!!!

Answer 2

There is NO health professional that will insert an IUD while you are pregnant. That is insane. You actually have to wait EIGHT weeks AFTER delivery before you can get one.

What good is an IUD if you are already pregnant? This just baffles me.

Answer 3

Take it out immediately, you can cause severe birth defects, possibly even death. You are supposed to go to the dr. to have it removed before trying to have a baby! Your IUD may have moved without you knowing it, however you are supposed to check the strings frequetly to prevent this from happening. So go to the OB/GYN NOW to check the baby's and your health.

Answer 4

Have it examined regularily. A friend of mine turned up pregnant more than once! Get ob/gyn to examine it regularly.

Answer 5

According to one online

article,

the IUD regardless of what type has some complications or side effects, which may be hazardous to the woman.

Answer 6

There is an approximately 30% chance of a miscarriage after removal of an IUD in a pregnant patient.
