Women who choose an intrauterine device (IUD) as a form of birth control expect the manufacturer to provide a safe, dependable product and to be honest about the severity of any risks.
Unfortunately, the FDA has received reports of serious health issues from thousands of women who have used Paragard, as well as from medical professionals.
Despite these health risks, the FDA has not issued a Paragard recall.
Paragard IUDs have been known to break or fracture, resulting in severe injuries that often require invasive surgery and other medical treatment.
If you or a loved one have been injured by the Paragard IUD, you may be eligible to file a Paragard Lawsuit.

You may qualify to file a Paragard lawsuit if you or a loved one received a Paragard IUD device, and subsequently suffered injuries related to:
Many women injured by the Paragard IUD have had to undergo serious medical treatments such as surgery and hysterectomy.
The value of a lawsuit depends on specific details of each individual case, so it is best to consult with an attorney to get a more accurate estimation of your case value.
Our Paragard attorneys estimate that average Paragard settlements may range between $10,000 to $400,000.
These estimations are by no means a guarantee of compensation for your Paragard Lawsuit, they are merely estimations based on settlement discussions and prior mass tort cases involving defective medical devices.
Despite numerous reports of serious and fatal injuries over the years, the FDA has not recalled the Paragard IUD.
An IUD, or intrauterine device, is a form of birth control that is inserted into the uterus to provide long-term birth control and prevent pregnancy.
It is made of plastic and/or copper, and can stay in place for several years.
There are two types of IUDs: hormonal and non-hormonal.
Hormonal IUDs release progestin, which thickens cervical mucus and thins the lining of the uterus, making it difficult for sperm to fertilize an egg.
Non-hormonal IUDs, like the Paragard IUD, contain copper.
The presence of copper creates an environment that is toxic to sperm, preventing fertilization.

Paragard Lawsuit Update April 2023 | Paragard IUD Lawsuit News
The Paragard IUD is an implantable contraceptive made of T-shaped plastic and a copper coil that stays in a woman’s uterus for up to ten years, preventing pregnancy.
The manufacturers, Teva Pharmaceuticals USA Inc. and Cooper Surgical, advertised the product as simple to use and remove.
The copper coil inside the IUD’s plastic casing triggers a toxic inflammatory reaction that destroys eggs and sperm.
This can effectively prevent pregnancy.
Although the Paragard IUD is promoted as the only IUD that doesn’t contain hormones, it has been related to thousands of significant injuries and issues.
Users of the Paragard T380A IUD who have experienced adverse effects have filed lawsuits against the company responsible for making the medical device to recover financial damages.
Over 40,000 reports of concerns with Paragard IUD have been submitted to the FDA’s Adverse Event Reporting System (FAERS) in the nearly four decades the device has been available.
Over 15,000 were for severe complications, with at least 15 fatalities.
Paragard lawsuits claim that Paragard’s manufacturer, Teva Pharmaceuticals USA, should have warned patients about the device’s tendency to break or fracture during removal.
Manufacturers are responsible for user injuries when they fail to adequately warn about serious risks.
Paragard victims who file claims over a company’s failure to provide a warning may be entitled to monetary compensation for their injuries, medical expenses, lost earnings, pain and suffering, and other damages.
Injuries are possible outcomes of a defective Paragard or its complications.
Some of the significant risks and issues of Paragard IUD failure are:
Since the manufacturers of Paragard neglected to provide an adequate warning to its customers, those who have used the product are not responsible for the consequences.
Accordingly, victims who sustain injuries because of these side effects may be eligible to take part in the Paragard Litigation.
In particular, women are at risk for severe injuries if the Paragard IUD breaks inside the body or when using the removal cord.
Paragard IUDs have been known to break or fracture when being removed.
Broken IUD pieces can cause serious injuries, including lacerations to vital organs, migration to other areas of the body, and the need for surgical removal.
Painful and invasive procedures are typically necessary to treat injuries caused by a failed IUD.
In severe cases of the device breaking or fracturing, a subsequent hysterectomy may be necessary.
According to some reports, the Paragard IUD can perforate a woman’s uterine lining, leading to bleeding and other serious complications.
The risk of the device getting “stuck in the uterus” is also highlighted on the Paragard website.
This makes its removal more complex and may require additional surgery.
Complications during pregnancy are possible for women with a copper wire IUD in their bodies.
There is a risk of ectopic pregnancy if a woman who has an implant becomes pregnant.
What happens is that the fertilized egg attaches and develops somewhere other than the uterine cavity.
Most ectopic pregnancies develop in the fallopian tube, which can cause severe bleeding and other health problems.
Here’s a list of some of the injuries that a broken Paragard could cause:
There are some things you need to do before filing a claim.
Paragard IUD users who experience a break in their device should first and foremost keep up their regular medical checkups.
Doctors will advise on how best to prevent further injury.
Learn as much as possible about the civil litigation process and what to expect from Paragard IUD defect lawsuits before meeting with a Paragard attorney.
It is crucial to speak with Paragard Lawyers as soon as possible to begin the process of filing a lawsuit, as the statute of limitations may impact how long you have to file a claim for compensation after a Paragard IUD injury has been detected or diagnosed.
When dealing with a situation that calls for legal counsel, it’s essential to retain the services of a top-tier legal practitioner.
However, because there are so many qualified lawyers in the country, finding the best one for your case can be difficult and overwhelming.

You need to find a lawyer that is easy to talk to and understand.
Your attorney needs to be proactive in tracking how your case is progressing.
Your lawyer should also be sensitive to your needs and concerns, and should welcome any questions you may have.
They should have a refined process, in conjunction with their legal support team, to understand your case on a deeper level.
Each lawyer will bring their own unique style to the table as they fight for their client’s best interests.
You should also consider whether you feel at ease with the attorney and whether you can trust them with private and sensitive information.
Women who use the Paragard IUD and end up injured or dealing with major complications because of it must be aware of their legal options and the strategy in place to maximize compensation.

Due to the similarities between Paragard cases, the courts have decided to consolidate them into multidistrict litigation.
However, like prior mass tort cases, each claimant has their own attorney and is seeking financial compensation for separate injuries.
There are now over 1,800 pending Paragard IUD Lawsuits ongoing in the Paragard MDL as of May 2023.
Attorneys from all over the country are filing new Paragard IUD lawsuits.
In March 2024, the first Paragard bellwether trial involving alleged defects in Paragard IUDs will take place.
Judge Leigh Martin May has denied multiple efforts to dismiss the Paragard class action MDL.
As hundreds of women who were injured when their birth control device fractured or broke during removal file product liability claims, Bellwether trials will provide insight into how jurors are likely to react to the facts and testimony presented.
The Paragard judge is giving careful consideration to the most equitable method for selecting cases for bellwether trials.
According to the judge’s proposed hybrid approach, parties will select three cases and have one veto each.
The judge is apprehensive that letting each side pick its own case may result in extreme data points, with only the best and worst cases being tried, while simultaneously being concerned that random selection may not result in representative cases.
