I have been having the symptoms of pregnancy, but the four tests I have taken have come up negative. Now I have heard of women becoming pregnant while using Mirena, although it may be a long shot...I just wonder if the hormone released by Mirena could be causing false negatives? I have been searching the internet and can't find an answer on this. I'm making a doctor appointment to check this out, I'm having nausea, swelling/tenderness of my breasts, my ankles are sore and swelling, back pain, mood swings and weird cravings...my boyfriend is convinced that I am pregnant, but all the tests have come up negative! Now I wouldn't mind, I love our kids and having another would be perfectly fine. I just worry because Mirena is supposed to be so effective at preventing pregnancy and I know there would be complications involved in continuing a pregnancy with it in place, and removal of it can cause miscarriage.
So mainly my question is, does anyone out there know if Mirena could be causing a false negative pregnancy test result?
Thanks for reading, hope I get some responses.

:-) stop driving your selves nutz people I have had the Mirena for 5 years on and off and haven't had a positive pregnancy in all these years. Yes I have had all the symptoms that you guys are listing as in tender breast nausea in the AM and fatigue sickness cravings weight gain all of it. Now i at first got paranoid and took the test and went to the doctors and my OBGYN did all the testing and told me that this is normal and not a sign of pregnancy! although I felt the symtoms of pregnancy he advised me that this could be many things, gas in the stomach (movement) the tenderness in the breast normal. Now with being ont he Mirena so many years I do not get a period :-| but this is what may cause the changes in my body and what i am feeling also. I did at one point a few years ago , had the device removed as it felt like it shifted or moved (causing horrible pain in my lower parts) and upon removing the device (which hurt so bad) I had a follow up appt for 2 wks after that and July 4th was the weekend of and had a few drinks one thing lead to another and had intercourse unprotected with my fiance , now i thought i was okay as the doctor said after removal you are not fertil for a whole year !!! boy was that a lye !! I had a tubal pregnancy that had to be removed and found out days after that that my hormones were rising to to my total shock i was PREGNANT again or still how this happened i guess i will never know but I have a beautiful 4 year old daughter now that was never in a million years expected ! So in conclusion dont think to much on the symptoms unless you had it removed!
