Mirena Coil - pregnancy

[Jenjen12]

Not sure where this post should go really but background is that I had a mirena cool fitted 4 and half yrs ago after first son's birth. On Saturday I had what I think is a migraine ( never had one before) causing me to vomit etc. since then I have had terrible indigestion with mild nausea and lower abdomen discomfort (like a pulling sensation) not really sure where I am in my cycle as periods are very light and this months did seem late but tbh I don't pay much attention due to the coil. I had very bad sickness with my first and terrible indigestion so can recognise those signs. Just wondering if anyone else had similar experience and is their a chance I could be pg? I know it's highly unlikely but I just feel funny!!

I thought mirena coils were for 3 years and then the hormone ran out? Have you had it checked at all? Can you feel it's still in place? Maybe you should do a preg test!

Mirena is for 5 years, I don't know why for you but I know when I had mine I had it removed because I felt preg all time but that more or less started straight away, if its come outa place etc then pregnancy is possible, I'd take a test and go see your gp maybe xx

Think it's prob just a bug as my little boy is now poorly with cold cough temp and sick 😒. Will see how it goes x

Hi everyone im new to the site but wondered if anyone could give me some advice... Ive had the mirena coil in for about 4 years now and never had a problem... I had a regular light staining in place of a period every month but i havent had a "period" since december which is now 2 months?? Ive also been very tired lately and over the past few days ive been experiencing diahorrea in the morning and late at night?? I have a four year old son and when i was pregnant with him i was constantly vomiting which I am not suffering now but is there a chance i could still be pregnant?? Ive done a few home tests which have all been negative but im still worried as ive heard that the hormone in the mirena coil can affect the test results?? Im going out of my mind... has anyone got any advice?? xx
