The Mirena lawsuit in federal court focused on IUD claims involving uterine perforation, the Mirena IUD moving out of place, and other serious complications. Plaintiffs have alleged that Bayer failed to warn patients about those risks. The most common Mirena IUD injuries are pelvic inflammatory disease, device embedment, perforation of the uterus or cervix, and serious infections.
The plaintiffs in those cases, as the attorneys at Reich & Binstock know from their practice, are not whistling Dixie.
The primary concern is that Mirena IUD migration often goes undetected for a long time. Reports note that uterine perforation can be asymptomatic and generally won’t be discovered until the patient suffers stomach pain, bleeding, or another serious concern. Anyone who believes they were injured by Mirena should contact our law firm about their specific situation and possible legal options.
Mirena IUD Injuries and Symptoms
Several Mirena IUD injuries have been identified. For example, many women taking Mirena experienced IUD hair loss.
Other symptoms named in Mirena lawsuits include:
- Group-A streptococcal sepsis
- Pelvic inflammatory disease (PID)
- IUD embedding in the uterine wall
- IUD perforating the uterine wall or cervix
Victims have suffered physically and have incurred medical expenses related to Mirena side effects. Some of the unfortunate patients lost wages due to time off from work for medical appointments and so forth.
Mirena Injuries from IUD Migration
One common problem is that the damage caused by IUD device migration can remain undetectable for a time. This is what researchers in the Netherlands, New Zealand, Switzerland and Germany observed. They reported their findings in the January 2011 edition of the international medical journal Drug Safety.
Authors of the report concluded, according to the Abstract that the U.S. National Institutes of Health made available, “Uterine perforations can be asymptomatic and may remain undetected for a long time after [Levonorgestrel-releasing] IUD insertion. Abdominal pain, control/check-up visits or changes in bleeding patterns are triggers for detection of perforation and should therefore be taken seriously.”
Filing and Individual Mirena IUD Lawsuit in 2026
If you suffered Mirena IUD injuries, you may still be able to file an individual lawsuit in 2026 against the manufacturer, Bayer, and in some cases other potentially responsible parties involved in the design, labeling, marketing, or distribution. Some patients may be able to file medical malpractice lawsuits for negligent follow-up care and other issues. Depending on the facts, your claim may focus on failure to warn, defective design, or negligence related to the risks of perforation, migration, or infection.
