At Blues Family Practice Clinic, we provide expert care for IUD removal, a procedure designed to safely and efficiently remove an intrauterine device (IUD) when you no longer need it or if you’re experiencing unwanted side effects.

An IUD is a highly effective form of birth control, but there may be times when removal is necessary. Whether you’re looking to become pregnant, switch contraceptive methods, or manage side effects, we’re here to guide you through the process. IUD removal is a simple and quick procedure, usually completed in just a few minutes. During the procedure, your healthcare provider will gently pull on the IUD’s removal strings to safely extract the device. In rare cases, if the strings are not visible, a small procedure may be required to remove the IUD.

The procedure is typically done in our clinic, and most patients experience little to no discomfort. After removal, you may experience some cramping or spotting, but this is generally brief and resolves quickly. You can resume normal activities the same day, although we recommend avoiding strenuous exercise for a short time afterward.

It’s important to remember that IUD removal does not affect your fertility. Most women can become pregnant soon after removal, though it’s always best to consult with your healthcare provider about your options and timing.

If you’re considering IUD removal or have any concerns, our compassionate team at Blues Family Practice Clinic is here to help. Contact us today to schedule a consultation and discuss your options. Your health and well-being are our priority!
