Is Pregnancy Possible While On An IUD?
I have my 2nd iud. So been using the iud for about 8 years now. I have not had any form of a period and minimal spotting in years. For the last month i have had on and off spotting of dark red to red blood. Just enough for panty liner. About 3 weeks i passed what looked like flesh/tissue. Like a latex ballon piece. Was off white color. Is that normal? Also had breast tenderness/nausea so wondered if could have been a tubal pregnancy as well. Was doing some reading and saw this. Thank you for your time

Hi Ma'am
After going through your query I understand your concern.
I would like to tell you there are less than 1% chances of IUD failure. Pregnancy with IUD have same symptoms like normal pregnancy.
It's advisable to personally consult a Gynaecologist and get done ultrasound abdomen done for a proper evaluation .
Hopefully this will answer your query
Wish You Good Luck
