Current evidence suggests that ParaGard, an IUD, primarily prevents pregnancy by preventing fertilization. It does this by creating an environment in the uterus that is toxic to sperm and prevents them from fertilizing an egg. While it is true that some women may experience a disruption in their menstrual cycle that could potentially prevent ovulation, this is not the primary mechanism of action for ParaGard. Additionally, ParaGard does not cause spontaneous abortions.
