Is Pregnancy Possible While On An IUD And Norethisterone?

Hi. Im on the non hormonal coil at the moment and due my period when we are away on holiday. I was planning to take norethisterone to delay my period. My question is will I get pregnant if I had unprotected sex even with the coil and on norethisterone? Thank you so much

Hi,

You can't get pregnant while using an IUD because it is a very effective contraception method. Also being in end of cycle and using Norethisterone doesn't increase the pregnancy probability. You are safe for pregnancy.

Hope I have answered the question.
Let me know if I can assist you further.
