Well I don't know how long you have had your IUD but I have had mine for about a year now. I have not had any problems with it. I as well got pregnant on a BC pill. And ended up losing the baby so I got the mirena IUD. I had one period since which was a month after I got it. So a few times throughout the year I would be the same way, emotional, eating all the time, craving things, exhausted, moody, just like I was pregnant. I did take a home pregnancy test just to make sure I wasn't pregnant, and sure enough I wasn't. I read somewhere that sometimes with hormone released BC your body can react like its pregnant. I called my dr to just make sure and asked why I was feeling like I was pregnant and she said that its ok and it can be normal for some woman. Just as long as I check my string regularly and its there in place im fine. But your chances on getting pregnant is less than 1% on the IUD. Its more effective than getting your tubes tied. But if you are really concerned take a test.
Thank you so much for answering me. I was starting to wonder if anyone was going to.. well I have been on Mirena for going on a year now. I have loved it. not having to remember to take a stupid pill everyday at the same time.. it would be impossible for me now that I have my son.. he keeps me on my feet and sometimes things just slip my mind. so Mirena is PERFECT for me! I never thought to ask my doctor about the whole ur body can have symptoms like it is pregnant but not actually be pregnant.. and I knew that it was a very slim chance I could get pregnant with the IUD! I have taken many home pregnancy tests and all negative! well I have my anual exam coming up so maybe I will talk to him about that. thank you for your input on my question.. by the way, my name is Sheena. Nice to meet you. and thanks :)
It is possible that u could be pregnant. I know a girl who is currently 6-7 months pregnant with her 4th. She was had an IUD (not sure which one) and she didnt find out she was pregnant til her 4th month. I would suggest taking a HPT (home pregnancy test) and seeing what the results are. Could never hurt to know right?
