Irregular periods w an IUD??

Question

I got my IUD in August 2015, and once my body got adjusted to it, my periods seemed pretty regular. This month though, I didn't get a period, and I'm wondering if it's stress in my life (i just finished my first year of college, moved back home, and started my job), my IUD, or something to be worried about???? Thoughts???

Answer

No need to worry, irregular periods are normal with IUDs.

Answer

The hormonal ones will do that to you. I have Skyla and I love it--except my cycles are insanely irregular. Sometimes I panic and instantly resort to pregnancy, but a certain percentage of women stop getting their periods with hormonal IUDs anyway. Stress delays it, too, but yup it's normal.
