Can IUD cause delayed periods?
Patient: hi,i am 29 years .i have 2 year daughter.last year i hav inserted copper T.and now facing the problem delayed periods. my last date was 29 july and still waiting for it . is this much period is as expected or is the case of failure of copper T.what should i do? Doctor: Hello,Copper T is not a hormone based device hence, it doesnt cause delayed periods. There is either a failure of the device or an unrelated hormone dysfunction. Do a pregnancy test if your period is delayed by more than a week. If its positive, see your doctor immediately. If its negative, your doctor can give you medicine to get your period. Plus the cause for the delay should be investigated.
