Hello welcome to 'Ask A Doctor' service.
I have reviewed your query and here is my advise.

IUD is very effective but it does not guarantee 100% safety from pregnancy. IUD has 99.7% efficacy rate. However, if you have taken Primolut N also then there are fewer chances of you getting pregnant, it should be withdrawal bleeding(spotting). None the less, if you do not get menstruation & observe some changes in your symptoms you should get a urine test for pregnancy done., as with IUD chances of Ectopic pregnancy are high.

Hope I have answered your question.
Let me know if I can assist you further.
