​Paragard is an intrauterine device (IUD) made from copper and a hormone called levonorgestrel. It’s one of the most effective birth control methods available, with up to 99% effectiveness when used as directed. Copper IUD removal is the process of removing it once you no longer want to use it or if you are having problems with it. An intrauterine device (IUD) is a small T-shaped device that is inserted into your uterus and left there for at least five years. The Paragard IUD is a type of IUD that has copper instead of the standard synthetic hormone-releasing plastic. While many women choose to keep their Paragard IUD for its extended lifespan, others may prefer to have it removed, depending on personal factors and preferences. Here is what you need to know about Paragard IUD removal side effects. If you suffered ParaGard IUD removal complications ​or ParaGard removal side effects, call ParaGuard IUD Removal Lawyer Timothy L. Miles today for a free, no-obligation case evaluation about a ParaGard IUD Removal Side Effects Lawsuit. 

What is Paragard?

​The Paragard IUD is an intrauterine device (IUD) used for contraception and menstrual regulation. It is a type of copper-containing IUD and is the only IUD available in the United States that is not made of synthetic fibers. It contains copper, which is a naturally occurring element that has been used for centuries for both contraception and as a method of treating heavy menstrual bleeding. The Paragard IUD can be used as a long-term, reversible birth control method that can last for up to ten years. It is recommended for women who are done having children, want a non-hormonal form of contraception and do not want to be surgically sterilized. The Paragard IUD can be used by women who have a history of dysmenorrhea, pelvic inflammatory disease, or other sexually transmitted infections. However, they should always be counseled on the risks of these conditions when using this IUD. Additionally, women who are currently breastfeeding should not use the Mirena IUD due to the small amount of hormone that passes into breast milk.

​There are some cases where you should not have your Paragard IUD removed. It is important to consult with your doctor before having it removed to see if it is an option for you. Some common reasons for not having a Paragard IUD removed include the following: -No health concerns -Wanting to keep an IUD for an extended period of time -No desire to become pregnant immediately -No desire to use another method of contraception -No desire to deal with the side effects of having a Paragard IUD removed -Being unsure of the benefits of having it removed.

ParaGard Removal Side Effects

ParaGard IUDs are removed by a healthcare provider. IUDs should be removed when they expire (they typically last from 3 to 10 years), when the user wants to get pregnant, or after experiencing ParaGard side effects. Some typical ParaGard removal side effects include light bleeding between periods, cramping, pain, and heavy bleeding during periods.​​ Several ParaGard IUD users have reported that the device can also reportedly break during removal, leaving part of the device embedded in the uterus, according to a report published in the Open Journal of Clinical & Medical Case Reports. Some of the complications caused by a broken or fractured IUD, or other ParaGard removal side effects, include:
  • Broken pieces getting lodged in the uterine cavity 
  • Uterine infection 
  • Pain, cramps, and/or bleeding 
  • Perforation of the IUD through the wall of the uterus 
  • Broken pieces migrating to other organs 

If breakage occurs, it may require that the device be removed with serious invasive treatments such as surgery to remove any leftover pieces and total hysterectomy, which may result in infertility issues for those affected. If you suffered ParaGard removal side effects, call ParaGard IUD Removal Lawyer Timothy L. Miles about a ParaGard IUD Removal Side Effects Lawsuit.
