Hello,
Thanks for the query to H.C.M.Forum.
Failure rate in Mirena I U D is only 0.2%, if properly inserted by a qualified person.
Now, it is not possible to say that you are pregnant or not.
If you have any doubt that then please get in home pregnancy test .
However the symptoms , which , you mentioned in your query relates to pregnancy.
1 You can ovulate in spite of I U D insertion.
2 Usually one week after intercourse you can get pregnancy test and its results are correct.
Good luck.
Dr. HET

Hello, I would be happy to help you with your question.
1. Yes, you still ovulate with the Mirena IUD in place
2. If you conceived, a urine test will turn positive about 2-3 weeks later
While no birth control is 100% effective, the Mirena IUD is extremely effective. These symptoms are likely related to your cycle, but a pregnancy test is indicated now and again in 2-3 weeks.
I hope that this helps and good luck!
