Whether you prefer hormonal or non-hormonal options like copper-based IUDs, our medical experts will clearly explain the benefits, potential side effects and answer any queries you may have to help make an informed decision about what best suits your lifestyle and personal preferences.
Treatment does not end just after the insertion process; providing thorough follow-up care and monitoring after an IUD has been inserted is also part of our commitment towards ensuring good women’s health here in McCook. At Womens Health Group Chicago, we carefully track patients’ recovery progress post-insertion to proactively manage any possible complications that may arise following the procedure while promoting healthy living habits.

IUDs work in two ways:
There are two main types of IUDs:
IUDs offer a number of benefits, including:
Most women can get an IUD, regardless of their age, parity (whether or not they have had children), or medical history. However, IUDs are not recommended for women with certain medical conditions, such as pelvic inflammatory disease (PID) or active sexually transmitted infections (STIs).
IUDs are inserted into the uterus by a healthcare professional during a pelvic exam. The insertion procedure is usually quick and easy, and most women experience only mild cramping.
The most common side effects of IUDs are spotting and cramping. These side effects are usually mild and go away within a few months of insertion. Other potential side effects of IUDs include:
The length of time you can keep an IUD in place depends on the type of IUD you have. Copper IUDs can last for up to 10 years, while hormonal IUDs can last for 3 to 7 years, depending on the type.
If you are considering an IUD, talk to your doctor about the risks and benefits of IUDs and to choose the type of IUD that is right for you.
