Got my IUD out yesterday, I need some advice.?

Question

ok, so IUD came out yesterday and we are trying to get preg. so do i need to wait til i have a period to get preg? since i have not had my period in 2 years, i am wondering if i can get preg. before i get my first period. any advice would be great! thanks

Answer 1

It is recommended that you wait until you have 3 cycles. For 3 reasons

1. You want your lining to build to a good level. If you are period free while on Mirena then you will def want to wait the 3 cycles because if you are period free it means you are not building up the lining on your uterus so if you happen to ovulate while your lining is still to thin the fertilized egg will be unable to take and nourish. Once you have had 3 cycles it is safe to say your body has re adjusted to its own hormones.

2. If mild scarring happens at the time of removal 3 cycles will give it time to heal (There is no way to know if you did or did not have scarring)

3. for timing purposes. Once you have had 3 cycles you will be more likely to have a pattern and you will be able to pinpoint conception better there for timing your pregnancy better.

I just had my 2nd Mirena removed 6/19 to ttc

Answer 2

yes, pretty sure you can. i had my iud removed late aug. and was pregnant by mid november. good luck to you!

Answer 3

No, the doc says you are completely fertile right after you have it removed. So, theoretically you could get preg tomorrow.   Good luck!!
