What Patients Say About Us

FAQs

Get quick answers to common questions about our services.

Your coil should be removed when it reaches the end of its licensed lifespan — 5 years for the Mirena and Kyleena coils, and 5 to 10 years for the Copper coil. However, you do not need to wait until it expires. Early removal is perfectly appropriate if you are experiencing side effects, planning a pregnancy, or simply wish to use a different form of contraception.

Yes. Our specialist doctors are experienced in removing all types of IUD coils, including the Mirena hormonal coil, the Kyleena hormonal coil, and the Copper coil — regardless of where it was originally fitted.

Most women find coil removal much more straightforward than insertion. The procedure takes only a few minutes and is typically described as mild cramping or a brief pulling sensation. Your doctor will talk you through every step to keep you as comfortable as possible throughout.

Fertility can return very quickly after coil removal — in many cases within the first menstrual cycle. If you are not trying to conceive, alternative contraception should be used immediately after removal unless you are having a replacement coil fitted in the same appointment.

Yes. Blackwater Private Clinic offers same-appointment removal and replacement for all coil types. Both procedures are completed in a single visit so there is no gap in your contraceptive cover and no need for a second appointment. Combined removal and replacement is available from £350.

Yes. Our doctors are members of the FSRH (Faculty of Sexual and Reproductive Health), the professional body that sets the clinical standard for contraceptive procedures in the UK and Ireland.
