At our clinic in Calgary, Alberta, we specialize in providing safe and effective IUD insertion services. An IUD, or Intrauterine Device, is a highly reliable form of long-term contraception, suitable for a wide range of women seeking effective birth control without the daily hassle.
IUDs are small, T-shaped devices inserted into the uterus to prevent pregnancy. They come in two main types: hormonal IUDs, which release progestin to thicken cervical mucus and thin the uterine lining, and copper IUDs, which release copper to create an environment that's inhospitable to sperm.

Before insertion, you'll have a consultation with one of our healthcare providers to discuss your health history, the different types of IUDs, and what to expect during and after the procedure.
IUD insertion is a quick process, generally taking only a few minutes. The procedure is performed in our clinic, usually without the need for anesthesia. Some women may experience cramping during and after insertion, but this typically subsides shortly.
We recommend a follow-up visit to ensure the IUD is properly positioned and to address any concerns. You may experience light spotting and cramping for a few days after insertion.
Our healthcare providers will help you choose the most suitable IUD based on your health, lifestyle, and family planning goals. We'll provide you with detailed information on the hormonal and copper IUDs available, including their benefits and potential side effects, to help you make an informed decision.
