Dr. Robert Killian answered

Specializes in General Practice

Patience: Only 20% of couples get pregnant within one month of actively trying. And those are the couples who have sexual intercourse during ovulation. I do not think any of us would say you are having any difficulties or even a hint of infertility this soon after removing an IUD.
