Insufficient info...: ...to answer your question. Paragard's most common side effects are heavy and/or prolonged periods. Did you start OC's to control the bleeding or in anticipation of removing the Paragard? Or what? If you set up a virtual consult on HealthTap, perhaps we can answer your questions. Or, you can ask your Gyn. Best wishes.
