What is an IUD Insertion?
IUD insertion is a highly effective, reversible form of contraception. At our Hurstville clinic, the procedure is performed with IV sedation to ensure minimal discomfort. You may choose between a hormonal or non-hormonal device, depending on your personal preference and health needs. The actual insertion only takes a few minutes, followed by a brief 30–60 minute recovery period at the clinic. Full aftercare guidance is provided before you leave.You are required to bring the IUD with you so that must be organised beforehand, through your GP.
What to Expect During Your Visit
We aim to make your visit to our Sydney clinic as smooth and reassuring as possible. Here’s how your appointment typically unfolds:
Consultation
Your appointment begins with a private consultation with our doctor. Our doctor will review your medical history, confirm your IUD device, and explain the sedation and insertion process, including potential complications.
The Procedure
Your IUD will be inserted under IV sedation by our highly trained medical practitioner in a purpose-built procedure room. The procedure is brief, and you are carefully monitored by our qualified medical team.
Recovery
After the procedure, you’ll be taken to our recovery area, where you’ll rest for approximately 30–60 minutes. Before discharge, you’ll receive aftercare instructions and guidance from our qualified medical team.
Sedation and Safety
At GCA Sydney, your well-being is our highest priority. Our sedation services are delivered by qualified sedationists (trained medical practitioners) in a medically monitored setting. We follow strict protocols to ensure your safety throughout the procedure. If you have any concerns or questions about sedation, our team is here to provide reassurance and support.
