Frequently Asked Questions
What is the Paragard IUD?
The Paragard IUD is manufactured by Teva Pharmaceuticals and has been around since the late 1980s. An intrauterine device (IUD) is a small plastic T-shaped device used for birth control. It is inserted into the uterus where it stays to prevent pregnancy. It is a small piece of flexible plastic shaped like a T. Sometimes it is called an IUC — intrauterine contraception. The Paragard IUD device has a specially designed copper coil connected to a plastic base. The device is implanted in a women's uterine cavity
How Does the Paragard IUD Work?
Paragard works using just 1 simple active ingredient which is copper. Paragard works by preventing the sperm from reaching and fertilizing the egg and may also prevent implantation. However, because Paragard is hormone free, it will not prevent your natural menstrual cycle or stop you from ovulating each month. At first, periods may become heavier and longer with spotting in between as a result of the IUD.
What Are the Benefits of a Paragard IUD?
Paragard Is an effective long-term contraception which can be used by premenopausal women of all ages, including teenagers. Some on the benefits of the Paragard IUD include that it:
Can be removed at any time.
Can be used while breast-feeding.
Does away with the need to interrupt sex for contraception.
Can remain in place for up to 10 years.
Does not have the risk of side effects, for example, such as blood clots, related to hormonal birth control methods.
What Are the Risks in Using the Paragard?
If you do conceive while using the Paragard IUD you are at high risk of having an ectopic pregnancy (a condition where the fertilized egg implants outside the uterus, usually in a fallopian tube.). However, as noted by the Mayo Clinic less than 1% of women who use the Paragard IUD become pregnant and the risks remain very low over time. As a result, because the rate of pregnancy is so low for those who use the Paragard IUD, their rate of getting ectopic pregnancy is low than women who are sexually active but do not use contraception.
Additionally, the Paragard IUD does not protect against sexually transmitted diseases, including HIV. Finally, as discussed below, there are the risks of experiencing Paragard removal side effects or other Paragard removal symptoms when you decide to have the device removed.
Who Should Not Use the Paragard IUD?
Paragard is not an appropriate alternative for everyone, and your doctor may discourage you from the Paragard IUD and urge to use another alternative if you have any of the following:
Uterine or cervical cancer.
Unexplained vaginal bleeding.
A pelvic infection, such as pelvic inflammatory disease.
Wilson's Disease (too much copper accumulates in your liver, brain and other vital organs.
An allergy to any component of ParaGard.
