Reply to comment by EmilyU1F984 in In House M. D. there is an episode in which the doc asked the lady who was concerned about weight gain. Doc asked her to raise their hand and by seeing that he was able to determine she was pregnant. Do arms and pregnancy have some correlation? by Abhinav_Mani
Fewer than eight out of 1,000 women (0.8 percent) become pregnant over five years using Mirena. Why should I do more pregnancy tests than someone who uses condoms? My daily activities wouldn’t change much based on whether I got a pregnancy diagnosis or not.

Presumably someone using only condoms would have a missed period as a hint that they need to take a test, while many women on continuous birth control have infrequent or no periods so wouldn’t otherwise notice something was different.
