A member asked:

I am a week late on my period. it has always been normal. i am using the copper iud, which is not suppose to stop your period. can i be pregnant?

A doctor has provided 1 answer

Doubtful: Copper 7 is very effective. No BC is 100% foolproof. Do a home pregnancy test- very low chances
