A member asked:

I got the skyla iud 3 months ago, and i have had unprotected sex twice, i took plan b once, and bled, but not the other time, could i be pregnant,?

A doctor has provided 1 answer

Doubt it: This IUD is quite effective in preventing pregnancy with data suggesting less than 1% risk/yr. That said anything is possible & you can do a home pregnancy test if you are worried. These are usually quite dependable as soon as 2-3 wks after presumed exposure.
