Hi dear user, pregnancy rate with IRENA use is less than 0.5 per 100 women years which is very low. So, chances of pregnancy are very low if your IRENA is in its right place. Probably, all these signs are due to its side effects. However, to be on safe side, you can go for serum beta Chat Doctor levels to rule out pregnancy. If that is negative then you can take anti emetics and painkillers for your symptoms.
