How much does it cost to get an IUD?

The Copper IUDs can be kept in place for nearly 10 years and have a low failure rate. The progesterone- based IUDs release a form of progesterone that makes the mucus in the uterus sticky thereby preventing sperm from getting to the uterus. Progesterone IUDs need to be replaced every year. Average cost of Copper IUD is about $250-750 whereas the cost of a progesterone IUD is about $250 - 400.No woman must get an IUD inserted unless she is certain that she is not pregnant. IUDs are not advised for teenagers and women who have never had children.I don't know how your insurance would factor into this but I am sure it would cost more than $15. But every insurance company is different so ask.

You can take the abortion pill up to 8 wks. Just contact a women's clinic and ask about it. It is costly though, the clinic I spoke with told me $400, which includes an exam, an antibiotic to take after words, and new birth control. \nAlso (and Im not saying this will work), I didn't have to have an abortion because I had a miscarriage from taking Hydroxy Cut.

It depends where you live and who is doing the procedure. If it is in a hospital you are looking at an average of around $1600-$3000 for the procedure and then you have to factor in anesthesia and lab. If you do not have insurance, your state should have an indigent care program. You may also want to see if you qualify for Medicaid in your state, and you can do that at your local Social Services office, or check your state online. Make sure you need the procedure before you have it done, though.

As long as you have the cards you are OK, Because on the cards they can see your ID number and Group Number. Without the cards I doubt they will take you. That happened to me once, I had to pay $80.00 for the Gyn because I didn't have the cards even thought I was insured. The deductible for a Gynecologist is usually $20.00 dollars. There should be no problem. But if you have any questions, contact the Insurance carrier and ask them if you can use it now. That's what I did once I got my cards and it worked. \n\n\nGood Luck!

An alternate birth control method that does not use hormones is called the ParaGard IUD.  Instead of hormones, ParaGard contains copper, which kills sperm.  It  provides protection for 10 years.  ParaGard may lower your risk of developing, endometrial, ovarian, and cervical cancers, though experts aren't sure why.  Also, ParaGard may be used if you're breast feeding or if you can't tolerate side effects from hormonal methods.  The cost is $362.50 plus about $150 for insertion; covered by most insurance.  If you're paying cash, that works out to $51.25 a year.

There are two kinds of IUD's.  Mirena  IUD contains a type of progestin called levonorgestrel, which blocks sperm and alters the lining of the uterus, interrupting implantation of a fertilized egg.\nIt is 99.9% effective.   Clinical trials have shown the hormone in Mirena helps shrink uterine fibroids, decreases menstrual cramping, can reduce period blood loss by 97 percent, and may lower your risk of endometrial cancer.  On the down side, there is also a one in 1000 risk that your uterus will be perforated during insertion, possibly resulting in complications.\n\nThe ParaGard IUD works differently than the Mirena; instead of hormones, ParaGard contains copper, which kills sperm.  It is 99% effective.  Research shows that ParaGard may lower your risk of developing endometrial, ovarian, and cervical cancers, though experts aren't sure why, and as with Mirena, you run the rare risk of uterine perforation when the IUD is insterted.\n\nWith both, some women's bodies will expel the IUD during the first year of use.  Hormonal side effects from the Mirena include nausea, breast tenderness, and headaches.

Tubal ligation, IVF (in vitro fertilization) treatment; IUI, ICSI and Laparoscopic surgery is very cheap in India. The cost is very low and the medical services are very good in India.\n\nMy cousin and her husband got their IVF treatment in India through the Forerunners Healthcare in India and is all praise for this company. She is a known case of PCOS.She is a very happy mother of a baby boy now. She just paid 2500 pounds for the full IVF treatment in India for which she was quoted 8000 pounds in private setup in UK.\n\nForerunners Healthcare is very famous in India. I read a lot about them in the newspapers. I have also read about a Chinese couple who planned surrogacy through the Forerunners Healthcare. They arrange financing for USA, Canadian, UK and other international patients who plan to have surgery and infertility treatment like IVF, IUI, and ICSI abroad for low price. They also have photos pasted of their International patients. You can checkout their website. There are huge cost savings. As a doctor I personally believe that surgery and treatment  can be easily handled in India, as the quality of healthcare available In India is simply best in the world. The surgeons are USA/UK trained and facilities are 5 star.\n\nhttp://www.forerunnershealthcare.com\nHope this helps.

During the first three to six months, you may have irregular and frequent bleeding as your body adjusts to the IUD. After that, your bleeding will most likely become lighter and less frequent. After six months of use, about half of women stop having periods, although light spotting occurs on average about three days per month. After one year of use, 20 percent of women stop having periods altogether.

I use the Mirena IUD and I love it. I had it put in 6 weeks after I had my 3 year old.  The only side effect that I've had is that I don't have a period just occasional spotting. (Great side effect if you ask me!) I think the chances of you getting pregnant with the mirena are so minimal that I wouldn't worry about it.

I attach a useful link from Princeton that will tell you how much you need to take of a wide variety of pills.  If your pill isn't on the list, it has not been proven to be safe or effective, and you are better off going to Planned Parenthood and spending the $20 then risking your health.

Like with every contraceptive method( other than condom but even that you can be allergic too) IUD's have risks. I have one i have had it for 5 years now and i must say that i am perfectly happy with it i had absolutely no problem. I would have to say that i do not recommend having one if you have never had children.\nSide effects can be mood changes, acne, headaches, breast tenderness, pelvic pain, cramping  increased bleeding during menstruation, nausea, it can move around ( that's why  you need to check it every now and then - so that you can prevent other complications.\nDoes it hurt? - it hurts a bit it's not pleasant. \nI am a huge fan of IUD's they are effective against pregnancy  NOT STD's and they don't have the risk of actually killing you unlike the pills, however i do believe that you should have a serious talk with your boyfriend and most of all your doctor before you do this. You want to make sure you can trust your boyfriend's/husband's health.\nThere is an increased risk of pelvic infections especially if you have more than one partner

per area like abdomen about $2,500-$3,500.......i had it done but don't recommend it unless you are active and have your diet under control.  otherwise you will gain the weight back in your problem areas.  everything boils down to proper diet and regular exercise.

I got an IUD 3 years ago after my second child since we weren't sure if we wanted to expand our family further.  I chose the Mirena over the copper after reading the side effects, etc and because I like that it was a 5 year IUD and that would be about the time for me to have more kids.  I LOVE it.  I've tried the pill and Depo Provera as well, but love this.  I don't forget to take anything and can be spontaneous.  My best friend and sister in law got them too after hearing about it from me.  I haven't noticed any real side effects (except no period...bummer-not!) and cannot feel it at all, although the doctor did recommend occasionally checking to make sure I can still feel the strings.

IUD... they are not what your mother used... There are about 20 different types out on the market right now... they are the most effective, with the exception of the new "ring" birth control. For women who have had bad luck or relsults with the "pill" in the past, these are worth discussing with your doctor.
