A Pennsylvania woman filed a Mirena IUD lawsuit against Bayer Healthcare last month, after she allegedly became pregnant following the migration of her intra-uterine device. According to the product liability complaint, which was filed in the U.S. District Court for the Eastern District of Pennsylvania, the plaintiff received her Mirena IUD in the spring of 2011, and a follow-up exam that June showed that the birth
control device was correctly positioned in her uterus. However, during a subsequent visit to her doctor, it was discovered that the plaintiff was pregnant, and the doctor was unable to locate the medical device via ultrasound. It was finally determined that the Mirena IUD had become embedded in the plaintiff’s uterine wall, and could not be removed until she underwent a cesarean section in 2013.
