Can Copper IUD Removal Cause Delay In My Periods ?

Copper iud removed now I am late for my period. Could I be pregnant? I had my copper iud removed on the 18th of June. I usually have a 31 day cycle and I should have started my period on the 5th or 6th of July but I didn t. I have been cramping, super emotional, I want to sleep all day, my breast are sore , and i am gassy. I took a hpt and it came back neg. i have 2 other children and i had a lot of the same symptoms with my first child. Could have ovulated late from having the iud removed? Is it possible im pregnant? I also didn t have hpt show a positive with my first child until 3-4 weeks after my missed period. I also noticed what looks like the brown pregnancy line starting at my pubic hair line and almost to my belly button.

Hi,
Tanks for query,
This is proper time for pregnancy test.
Go for urine test first and if it is negative then go for hcg test.
brown pregnancy line is to early to appear.
if hcg test is negative after few days go for another hcg test and rising titre is indication for pregnancy.
ok and bye.
