I’ve had a copper IUD almost three years. My husband and I were having sex when I started to feel pain. Cramping, rectal pressure and UTI symptoms appeared the following days after but went away. The next few weeks, I was a hormonal mess. I thought it was regular PMS symptoms that were elevated due to a change in my exercise routine.
My period (or what I thought was my period) arrived a few days late. I was in the middle of a squat at the gym when a giant gush of blood basically exploded out of me. I ran to the bathroom thinking I peed my pants and there was blood everywhere. I continued to bleed for nine days with today being the last.
I confided in my sister about what happened telling her about what I thought were my “hormone problems“ because she has a lot of holistic wisdom and she brought up the idea of it being a miscarriage and I should take a test and it would be positive since I would still have the hormone in my body if I had been pregnant. So I took a test and it’s indeed positive.
I’m mostly confused and a little relieved knowing that I was acting like a crazy person due to pregnancy but now I’m concerned that I’m still pregnant and never miscarried. Anyone have experience with this stuff?
