I had my copper iud (paraguard) removed last month and should have had my period by now but have not gotten it, however I do have some of my earlier pregnancy symptoms now but the hpt have all shown negative. I am not really sure what to do and would appreciate any advice anyone can give.

I would say go to your doctor and find out what is going on.

When was your LMP.. wait for 10 days from your periods due and then take a HPT,, best result with early morning sample,, if it still gives -ve results, go to your gyne,,
