<p><span style="font-weight: 400;">Intrauterine devices or “IUD’s” are common contraceptive devices used by women across the world. Shaped like a small T, these devices are typically 99% effective for preventing unplanned pregnancies.</span></p>

<p><span style="font-weight: 400;">For the vast majority of women, IUD’s are harmless. Some women can even use them for up to 10 years without any problems whatsoever. </span></p>
<p><span style="font-weight: 400;">However, for the 1% of women who do experience problems while using an IUD, the outcome can be very serious. In some cases, women have suffered from complicated ectopic pregnancies, permanent organ damage, and miscarriage. </span></p>
<p><span style="font-weight: 400;">Many women have fought back by filing class-action lawsuits against famous IUD brands like Mirena and Paragard. In one </span><span style="font-weight: 400;">Paragard lawsuit</span><span style="font-weight: 400;">, eligible women are entitled to lost wages, pain and suffering, and medical expenses incurred as a result of IUD failure. </span></p>

<h2><span style="font-weight: 400;">U.K. Doctors Shocked at Pharmacy Grad’s Unplanned Pregnancy</span></h2>
<p><span style="font-weight: 400;">One of the latest cases of a failed IUD incident involves a recent pharmacy graduate, Megan, from the United Kingdom. </span></p>
<p><span style="font-weight: 400;">Despite the successful use of her IUD for the past four years, Megan still unexpectedly became pregnant. </span></p>
<p><span style="font-weight: 400;">Doctors were just as confused as Megan was. One doctor thought that perhaps the IUD had broken or slipped out of place. However, after an ultra-sound and further investigation, they found that it was in perfect condition. </span></p>
<p><span style="font-weight: 400;">Megan went on to give birth to a healthy baby. However, Megan’s life completely changed and she had to give up her working fellowship and move back home. </span></p>

<h2><span style="font-weight: 400;">American Woman Becomes Pregnant With Paragard</span></h2>
<p><span style="font-weight: 400;">Another famous instance of a woman</span><a href="https://www.thedenverchannel.com/news/investigations/local-women-detail-rare-pregnancies-with-birth-control-devices"><span style="font-weight: 400;"> becoming pregnant while using an IUD</span></a><span style="font-weight: 400;"> is Nichole from Tennessee. </span></p>
<p><span style="font-weight: 400;">In a shocking video released on her family’s YouTube channel, Nichole shared her story of getting pregnant while using Paragard. </span></p>
<p><span style="font-weight: 400;">Just like Megan, Nichole’s IUD had previously been working for the past three years. However, she still somehow was able to become pregnant. At first, doctors thought she may have an ectopic pregnancy. However, after 20+ ultrasounds, Megan was told her pregnancy was normal and she went on to give birth to her fifth child. </span></p>
<p><span style="font-weight: 400;">Nichole’s YouTube video serves as a warning to women using IUD’s. She wanted women to understand that even though the risk of becoming pregnant is very low, it can still happen. </span></p>
