Pregnant Even If You Have an I.U.D ?

I have a friend who is 4 months pregnant. She had an IUD for not even a year. She started losing weight and it slipped..

Otherwise Mirena says it's safter than sterilization.

I got the Mirena on May 1st of this year and I have spotted/bled every single day since then. I talked to my gyno and she said that it could take up to six months for my body to adjust and to quit having spotting completely. So, chances are you probably aren't pregnant.

My daughter fell pregnant with Aaron and Reuben (twins, now 16 months old) on an iud. They took it out when she was a couple of months pregnant, which was scary as I thought they just left them in until the delivery.

Good luck

Hi A.,
I wanted to reply to your question because I know someone that DID get pregnant while having an IUD. It was a close family member(my first cousin). She had a copper IUD for a while and found out that she was pregnant after some time wearing it. I'm not sure if the IUD shifted or what (they are not suppose too) but I'm not sure of her symptoms but she did find out that she was pregnant. And here's the kicker, if you are pregnant they are going to have to remove the IUD which has a high risk of miscarrige but her baby survived. So God must have meant for that baby to be born. The baby was born very healthy and is growing like a weed. I'd have to admit that it was the first incident that I have ever known of where someone has gotten pregnant while using an IUD. Just to be on the safe side you may want to contact your doctor. Wish you all the best and take care.

I had an IUD for almost a year with no scares of pregnancy.

There are a lot of stories about conceiving with an IUD from 30 or so years ago. I wouldn't count those the same as IUDs today. They weren't nearly as effective as they are now.

My best friend did get pregnant while on IUD. Her doctor had told her that it was the BEST birth control but a couple of months later-she was pregnant! They told her it must have fell out!
