Hi. As I'm writing this I know the answer is to see the doctor for confirmation. To be truthful since I've had the coil, this is yr 5, I've never had a scare. My worry is if I am pregnant what happens and the risks with the coil? I have 2 beautiful kids but a history of miscarriage in between them. I know my period is late as some friends periods have come and gone and mine hasn't. Alarm Bells!!!!
