A member asked:

I didn't have a period last month but have this mth and all last mth had symptoms bad of pregnancy and i have a paraguard (iud)?

A doctor has provided 1 answer

Pregnancy test: Even though paraguard is very effective at preventing pregnancy it is not guaranteed. If you're worried, check a pregnancy test.
