My experience : Leaving an IUD in for a few months after the 5 year mark?

Come next month I will hit the 5 year mark with my IUD (Kyleena). I'm getting married in October and around that time we are thinking of trying for a baby.

I don't see the sense in having the IUD removed only to get another put in for a few months and removing it again. I don't have insurance at the moment and the cost of an IUD is around $400 in my country, so it would also be a waste of money.

I haven't done well with other birth control methods (the higher concentration of hormones turn me into a moody b*tch and cause weight gain), and condoms are just icky and ruin sex IMO.

Removing the IUD and going off any forms of birth control is an option, but getting pregnant before my wedding would not be ideal for various reasons.

I will talk to my Doctor about this of course, but I'm wondering if anyone here left their IUD in place for a few months after the "expiry"? What happened?

Thanks! 😊
