Is It Thursday Yet?

ParaGuard is a small IUD that prevents pregnancy for up to 10 years using copper. It's the only birth control that uses just one simple active ingredient to prevent pregnancy over 99% of the time, with no hormones and no daily routines. Tell your healthcare provider if you miss a period, have abdominal pain, or it comes out. At first, periods may become heavier and longer with spotting in between. ParaGuard won't protect against HIV or STDs.
