you can it happened to my SIL but hers had fallen out and she didn;t know. also i would say go and get it checked i got an infection from the coil i put up with the pain for 2 years and then had to have it removed and got warned i probably would be left infertile had to have a laparoscopy to see what my insides were like, i was lucky no damage. but seriously takea test and if negative get checked out.

Mumofmany glad you're ok!
I had a reaction to copper coil 4 years ago and wanted it out after a week or so but no one would do it in case I got preg so I had to wait a week in agony. When it was out I was immediately fine but worried I'd been damaged. No infections afterwards though. Hope I'm ok

You can get pregnant and there is even a higher risk of eptopic pregnancy too. If you have no bleeding or anything then chances of that are slim. Its more likely to be an infection. I had the Mirena Coil for 5 years, just removed in October. I too was feeling pain during intercourse.

I would do a test, if negative then go to docs anyway and you may have a urine infection or an infection from the coil itself- your blood cells will show if there is an infection.

Dont wait any longer honey, get yourself sorted! Good luck and let us know how you get on...

The nurse I saw a while back highly recommended the coil as its more safe than the pill apparently. My friends coil slipped and she got an infection with very similar symptoms to pregnancy so might be best to get it checked ? BUT, fingers crossed x
