I have had the paragard iud for about a year now. Normally my periods are always on time. This cycle, my period was a week late. I took two pregnancy tests because it’s not normal for me to be late, which were negative. I ended up getting my period, which lasted the same amount of days it typically does.

The strange part is usually as my period gets close to an end, it will turn to spotting a brownish tone for maybe a day or two. It didn’t happen this time. I stopped bleeding with no spotting. I had nothing for two days, then on the third day, I noticed a pink tinge when I would wipe. The following two days, it was a brownish tone in the morning and pink again at night. And now, it’s back to pink when I wipe the last two days. I’m now into my ovulation week, but all of this happened as soon as my period ended and up into ovulation week.

Has this happened to anyone? I have never experienced this random on/off after a period. I haven’t been feeling like myself (nauseous, feeling warm) but I’m associating it with being stressed with work and life recently. I did take a pregnancy test yesterday just to make sure, and it came back negative. Any insight is much appreciated!
