Paragard Lawsuit

ParagardⓇ IUD is recommended for women who want to avoid pregnancy for a longer period i.e. around 10 to 12 years. However, it does not stop your body to develop your menstrual cycle and you may have a heavy and prolonged menstrual period.

Paragard is wrapped in copper that prevents semen from reaching the ovary, which in terms prevents pregnancy. Paragard is a nonharmonic IUD like (Mirene, Keleena, Liletta, and Skyla).

Paragard IUD Side Effects

It is believed that Paragard is 99% effective. This essentially means that it will be effective for you until any action is taken. However, like every medicine, it has certain side effects. The most commonly reported side effects include:

  • Acne breakout
  • A longer/ heavier period
  • Unusual vaginal bleeding
  • Painful menstrual cycle
  • Backache
  • Cramping
  • Weight gain
  • Mood swing etc.

If you are having these side effects after injecting Paragard, then it is more possible that they might go away as time passes. Side effects that are potentially severe are thin on the ground like PID, which can be experienced during placement and removal of the IUD device.

Paragard IUD Removal Side Effects

It is recommended to have this device removed by a doctor. In some cases, doctors have to do minor surgeries for the removal of IUDs, if it is moved from the uterus or infected the organ. It should be replaced after the recommended time or if a woman wants to get pregnant. Most of the time, removal of the device caused complications for the women like uterus perforation, infection, and pregnancy out of the uterus.

In these cases, Paragard lawsuits can be filed against the medical malpractice to recover the sufferings and monetary damage.

It will take two to three calendar weeks for a woman to have her normal period again after the removal of the IUD.

But if a woman gets pregnant while using Paragard, then removal of the device may cause pregnancy loss.
