Have Paraguard IUD, No Periods Yet. HPT Negative. Could This Be False ?

Hello, I currently have Paraguard IUD in, and have yet to get my period. I think my last period was the end of january and i have not been keeping track because they are always around the same time. My husband and I did have sex on Feb 15 and Feb 16. I took 2 tests yesterday and both said negative. Could this be a false negative or am I in the clear of definitely not being pregant?

Hello,
Thanks for the query to H.C.M. Forum.
Paragard I U D is copper fitted I U D and most potent , so there is no chances of any pregnancy.
As you mentioned that home pregnancy test is negative twice , so why worry.
However it may happen that , if I U D not inserted at proper site or persons are not trained than there are chances of pregnancy.
Consult a gynaecologist and get his opinion as physical examination is very important .
Good luck.
Dr. HET
