Paragard® Copper IUD Linked to
Device Breakage, Migration & Uterine Perforation
If your Paragard IUD broke during removal, migrated, perforated your uterus, or caused serious injury requiring surgery, you may be entitled to significant compensation.
What is Paragard?
Paragard is a copper intrauterine device (IUD) used for long-term birth control. It is a T-shaped plastic device wrapped in copper wire. While marketed as non-hormonal and easy to remove, many women have experienced the device breaking or one of its arms snapping off during removal.
Broken pieces can migrate, perforate the uterus, or require invasive surgery to retrieve.
Paragard IUD Breakage & Serious Complications
The arms of the Paragard IUD can fracture during removal, leaving pieces inside the body that cause pain, infection, perforation, or require emergency surgery.
Common Injuries
IUD arm breakage, device migration, uterine perforation, embedment in uterine wall, chronic pain, infection, infertility, and the need for hysterectomy or other major surgery.
