Late period on Paragard?

Question

Hi guys! I got my paragard inserted in late March, got my period about a week or maybe more earlier that month than I was supposed to.  Today I am about 3 days late on my period, have brown spotting discharge and sore boobs. Should I take a pregnancy test, or are these normal symptoms? I have had super irregular periods in the past.

Answer

I got my ParaGard April 3rd and was supposed to have a period on the 10th but never got it. Still haven’t gotten it for this month either but all tests are negative. I was told that your body take some time to adjust, but I was expecting long heavy periods right off the bat. Were you on another form of hormonal birth control before getting the ParaGard? If so, the hormone crash might be messing with your cycle
