On this page, we’ll discuss the current status of a Paragard recall, what to know about the Paragard IUD Lawsuits, potential Paragard IUD Lawsuit settlement amounts, who qualifies to file a Paragard Lawsuit, and more.
As the case concerning defective Paragard intrauterine device (IUD) design continues to develop, many plaintiffs are raising the alarm to the responsible authorities to issue a defective product recall.
Despite the concerns raised, the flawed medical product is yet to be recalled.
The US Food and Drug Administration (FDA) hasn’t released any product recall orders for the Paragard IUD.
Because of this, more women are at risk for injuries from a Paragard IUD break, fracture, or migration.
As the number of victims grows, so does the number of Paragard Lawsuits the company faces.
If you’ve been injured by the Paragard IUD, you may be eligible to join the Paragard Litigation filed against the manufacturer (Teva Pharmaceuticals).

You can also use the chatbot on this page to find out if you qualify to file a Paragard Lawsuit instantly.
Our team at TorHoerman Law is dedicated to helping Paragard IUD victims fight for the justice they deserve.
If you want to learn more about the case, we outlined some of the key points about the case below.
We’ve also provided a brief guide on what to do if you have suffered injuries from the Paragard IUD.
The Paragard IUD is a birth control device produced by Teva Pharmaceuticals that claims to prevent pregnancy for about ten years.
The Paragard IUD is a Y or T-shaped device made of copper inserted into the uterus.
In theory, the copper coil will produce a toxic inflammatory reaction that will prevent the sperm from fertilizing eggs.
Unfortunately, the device’s design may contain defects that contributes to device failure, breaking during the removal process, fracture within the body, and other serious complications.
Many women and healthcare providers reported having trouble removing the device as it has the potential to break off inside the patient’s body during removal.
Structurally, the Paragard should flex easily upward for a seamless removal.
This defect can cause injuries inside the patient’s uterus, leading to various Paragard IUD complications, including the following:
In addition to these injuries, the treatments and procedures meant to remove the fragments inside the uterus are dangerous.
Invasive surgeries may be required to completely ensure that no IUD fragments are left inside the reproductive system and surrounding organs.
The Paragard multidistrict litigation (MDL) has been on the rise since 2013.
According to a certain news report discussing the rising Paragard lawsuits, the FDA accumulated over 3,186 reports of Paragard IUD failure.
Moreover, 102 of those cases resulted in life-threatening conditions.
These numbers might not reflect the current situation, as they could shoot up with the influx of claims submitted against the IUD manufacturer.
Here’s how the Paragard MDL has been unfolding for the past few years.
Although the issue of the defective Paragard IUD goes back to the early 2010s, the first known lawsuit against the manufacturer wasn’t filed until 2020.
A woman from Illinois filed a case against the manufacturer as she tried to remove the device, which broke off inside her body despite following proper removal procedures.
After a few months, four women from Kansas reported the same occurrence.
In 2021, the number of faulty Paragard cases started to increase exponentially.
Around this time, it was estimated that the Paragard MDL reached over 500 cases nationwide.
The year ended with Paragard cases extending over 700 individual lawsuits.
In 2022, the case made no progress despite the growing number of victims taking legal action against the negligent manufacturer.
The number of cases reached an all-time high, with over 1,400 pending Paragard IUD lawsuits.
It wasn’t until late 2022 that the schedule of the first bellwether trial was announced, which will occur in March 2024.
Although the litigation has been moving slowly in the eyes of many plaintiffs and their lawyers, the Paragard IUD Lawsuit is ongoing and lawyers across the country are still speaking to potential clients about what they’ve gone through.
In the build-up to the first Paragard bellwether trials scheduled for March 2024, our Paragard Lawyers expect more cases to be added to the Paragard MDL.
If you or a loved one have been injured by the Paragard IUD, you may be eligible to take legal action and file a Paragard Lawsuit against the manufacturer.

At the start of 2023, the number of Paragard cases reached over 1,500.
Needless to say, it was only starting to rise at this point.
Many experts anticipate that the number of cases could reach over 2,000 before the year ends.
The specifics of the scheduled first bellwether trial of the case are finally made publicly available.
According to the presiding judge of the Paragard IUD case, Honorable Leigh Martin May, they will select ten representatives from the pool of cases.
The plaintiffs will nominate 15 cases they believe reflect the issue’s severity, and the court will narrow it down to ten as further examinations are made.
Teva Pharmaceuticals is the target of Paragard IUD Lawsuits, but it is not the only IUD device linked to serious injury and adverse health events.
As the number of Paragard IUD defect lawsuits continues to grow, let’s look at the previous and current IUD recalls happening globally.
If we’re talking about historic IUD product recalls, we can’t leave out what happened to the Dalkon Shield intrauterine devices.
Similar to the Paraguard, the Dalkon Shield IUD was a popular option during its time.
From the 1970s to the 1980s, Dalkon Shield was as popular as Paragard is today.
Unfortunately, the Dalkon Shield IUD was recalled in the 1980s.
It was found to cause critical injuries and infections among its users.
After several lawsuits, the manufacturer eventually agreed to award multimillion dollars to the victims of the defective medical device.
Not long after, Dalkon Shield was banned by the FDA and removed from the market.
As the United States of America deals with the growing cases of defective Paragard intrauterine devices, Austria is also facing a similar battle with a different brand.
It was estimated that over 28,000 defective Eurogine intrauterine devices were sold to the public, but only 1,000 female victims have come forward with their claims.
The Eurogine IUD is facing the same problem with Paragard — the arm of the intrauterine device breaks off during its removal.
The manufacturer issued a product recall after the barrage of complaints and the growing concern of their market.
It’s still unclear if the 28,000 defective IUDs were sent back to the manufacturer.
Although the GYNDisposables IUD Insertion Kit is technically not an intrauterine device, it’s an auxiliary tool for easier insertion of the IUD.
The GYNDisposables IUD Insertion Kit is a plastic sheath designed to fit over the intrauterine device before it’s inserted into the uterus.
It was designed to reduce the risk of trauma and other complications when inserting an IUD. In 2011, the U.S. FDAÂ issued a recall of this IUD insertion kit due to the lack of sterility assurance.
If you have a Paragard IUD in your body, you should inspect it regularly and contact your OB-GYN if you have any doubts about its condition.
If you believe that a defective IUD has caused physical harm to you or a loved one, then here are some steps you can take:

Generally, IUDs are safe for contraceptive use and are considered to be one of the most effective forms of birth control available.
The Paragard IUD issue is a product of negligent designing and manufacturing, and this issue is not reflective of the IUD use.
However, consulting with your OB/GYN regarding IUD use is vital to ensure safe implantation and usage.
