ParagardÂ® is a copper-releasing device that is placed in your uterus to prevent pregnancy for up to 10 years. Do not use ParagardÂ® if you have a pelvic infection, get infections easily or have certain cancers. Less than 1% of users get a serious infection called pelvic inflammatory disease. If you have persistent pelvic or stomach pain, or if ParagardÂ® comes out, tell your healthcare provider. If it comes out, use back-up birth control. Occasionally, ParagardÂ® may attach to or in rare cases may go through the uterine wall and may also cause other problems. In some cases, surgical removal may be necessary.
