Can I have copper coil whilst waiting for fertility clinic appointment

Myself and my ex tried for a baby for a year, I had 2x 21day cycle tests for ovulation and they both came back as not ovulating. I had periods every 3-4 months also so the doctor sent me to fertility clinic that has minimum of 1 year wait list.

It's been nearly 6 months since myself and my ex split and someone new has come into my life. I'm scared incase I get pregnant straight away because since the split from my ex, my periods have come every month like clockwork so there's a possibility. I had an ultrasound and it came back completely normal uterus, no polycystic ovaries etc, lots of bloods and all normal so there is a chance I am fertile.

I don't want to do hormonal birth control so I want the copper coil, fertility returns to normal after its removed also which is great.

I'm really worried about ruining my chances of finding out if I can have children by having a copper coil and then getting my fertility appointment cancelled.

Not sure how it works to be honest so any help would be greatly appreciated.

I don't believe the copper coil will mess up your chances so to speak but just wanted to say that when I had the copper coil, my periods were completely messed up. I'm a very regular, every month week bleed. Always been that way but with the copper coil I was bleeding 3 out of 4 weeks each month. It was never ending! So just something to consider if your periods have only just regulated, they may be thrown off again with the copper coil. I had mine removed in the end as it was driving me insane
