Is Sharp Abdominal Pain And Discharge Like Mucus Symptom Of Ectopic Pregnancy?

I got the paragard IUD in November of 2012. Just two weeks ago I began to get sharp abdominal pains on the right side followed with some spotting and mucus like discharge. I searched it online and it said it could be an ectopic pregnancy. The pains come and go, not constant, but the pain is worse each time.
