IUD Insertion

IUD Insertion Services at Metro Area Advanced Practice Healthcare

At Metro Area Advanced Practice Healthcare, we specialize in IUD insertion services to provide our patients with a safe, long-term, and reversible birth control option. Whether you’re looking for a hormonal or non-hormonal intrauterine device (IUD), our experienced healthcare providers are here to guide you through the process with care and expertise.

What Is an IUD?

An IUD is a small, T-shaped device placed inside the uterus to prevent pregnancy. It is a long-term birth control solution that can last anywhere from 3 to 10 years, depending on the type you choose. There are two main types of IUDs:

  • Hormonal IUDs (Mirena, Kyleena, Liletta, Skyla): These release progestin to prevent pregnancy and may reduce menstrual cramps and lighten periods.
  • Non-Hormonal IUD (Paragard): This copper-based IUD is hormone-free and prevents pregnancy by creating an environment that is inhospitable to sperm.

The IUD Insertion Process

Our IUD insertion procedure is quick and performed in-office by skilled healthcare professionals. Here’s what to expect:

  • Consultation: We will discuss your medical history, reproductive goals, and any concerns to determine the best IUD option for you.
  • Preparation: A pelvic exam is conducted, and the cervix is gently prepared for the IUD insertion.
  • Insertion: The IUD is carefully placed into the uterus using a small applicator. The entire procedure takes just a few minutes.
  • Aftercare: Some mild cramping or spotting may occur, but most patients resume normal activities the same day. Follow-up appointments ensure the IUD remains properly positioned.

Benefits of IUD Insertion

  • Highly effective—over 99% protection against pregnancy
  • Long-lasting—provides birth control for several years
  • Reversible—can be removed anytime if pregnancy is desired
  • Low maintenance—no daily pills or frequent doctor visits required
