Pregnancy Test
Posted: 06-21-05 18:14pm

Does anyone know if a pregnancy test works if you are misscarrying? I have an iud(have had for 9 years) and my period started about 6 weeks after my last. Not that 6 weeks apart is that unusual for me but I have noticed that my emotions are way worse then usual and I have been experiencing lots of cramps which is unusual. I am worried that my iud may not be working correctly anymore. I don't have insurance and am not planning on going to the doctor unless I know I am/was pregnant.

I realized my mistake right after I posted it and posted it in the correct section. Sorry. Haven't gotten a reply from that section yet though.

You need to see a doctor your iud should be checked once a year and changed every 5 years.

Good luck.

Hello, my friend suspected she was having a miscariage without even realising she was pregnant to start with. The doctor told her to take a pregnancy test as the hormone would still be present, it can take a while to completely leave your body.

Hope that helps!
