CooperSurgical Introduces Paragard Intrauterine Copper Contraceptive with New One-Handed Inserter Page 1

CooperSurgical, a global leader in women’s healthcare, today announced the launch of a new inserter designed for one-handed placement of Paragard, which was recently cleared by the U.S. Food and Drug Administration (FDA). The new one-handed inserter simplifies the placement process for healthcare providers, making Paragard an even more accessible contraceptive choice for both providers and patients. Paragard, the #1 prescribed copper intrauterine device (IUD), is a proven, non-hormonal contraceptive option with over 30 years of clinical use.

“Paragard has been a reliable birth control choice for patients for more than three decades because of its continuous 10-year efficacy, immediate reversibility, and hormone-free formulation,” said Dr. Lee P. Shulman, board certified gynecologist and professor at Northwestern University Feinberg School of Medicine. “The new single-hand inserter is intuitive for providers. It simplifies the insertion process, making it convenient for providers and their patients.”
