@limetownjack Out of the topic but was it your only type of protection? I’m so paranoid of getting pregnant with IUD so thinking to use condom+IUD.

@maggiechristianforumsdeng I wasn’t paranoid about the iud until reading this lol

@lorilyons6 I got the IUD to ease my anxiety of getting pregnant and then I saw multiple tiktok videos of girls getting pregnant from IUD lol.

@maggiechristianforumsdeng Ah the nexplanon is the safest .. I loved it while it was working like normal but after the vaccine I got side effects so I just quit it

@limetownjack Thanks for the answer. I hope you’re okay. Sending hugs!!
@limetownjack I got my Kyleena put in in September and they said it was only good for 3 years and any time after that it gets progressively less effective, max 4 years.

Update: my planned parenthood person finally called me today at 9:50 pm with blood test results, my hcG after 24 was 175 and she said bc it’s going up so slowly it’s most likely ectopic and I should go to the ER to get the injection medicine.
I went to the closest ER that was in network without realizing it’s a catholic hospital. So after hours, blood drawn, ultrasounds, they told me nothing new. “Too early to tell, we can’t do anything. Come back in a few days” very frustrating to say the least especially since I can feel pressure on my right side of the pelvis and I am slightly bleeding.
I guess we’ll see what happens next.

@limetownjack My goodness. That sounds so scary. I’ll be thinking of you. Will you provide updates as you get more information?

@limetownjack Hi OP. Hope everything from here on out is smooth sailing for you. I’m sorry you’re going through this. I’ve never personally had an ectopic pregnancy, but it is a great fear of mine also being on Kyleena. You mentioned you had “more discharge than normal”, is this in relation to period discharge or vaginal discharge?

@grandmaks It was just regular clear vaginal discharge

@limetownjack This happened to me three weeks ago, I got a ruptured ectopic pregnancy with my Kyleena IUD and they had to remove my left fallopian tube. I'm still in shock, but I get better every day. You are not alone, sending lots of strength and love 
@bridgeacrosscultures Omg how are you doing? Do they know why it ruptured? Is this common for ectopic pregnancy?
@limetownjack just a question, what would happen if it was an ectopic pregnancy? Would it be treated as a normal pregnancy?
@ebeneziah No, the pregnancy is terminated as a fertilized egg cannot survive in the fallopian tubes.
