On average, Planned Parenthood finds that it costs anywhere between $500 to $1300 to get an IUD without insurance. Being one of the most effective types of long-acting reversible contraceptives (LARCs), Intrauterine devices (IUDs) have been around for over three decades in the United States. The cost of affording an IUD, especially without insurance can be relatively high.

The Cost of an IUD at Different Clinics & Locations

The net out-of-pocket cost for getting an IUD depends on a variety of factors, which makes it hard to narrow down on an exact range. Your total cost will often include a variety of services, such as a consultation visit and an ultrasound in addition to the cost of the IUD. With health insurance, most individuals can get coverage for the IUD (often the most expensive part of the treatment), and might just need to pay for the clinic visit and other additional costs. However, those without health insurance have to bear all parts of the net cost. 

Below is a comprehensive list of women’s health clinics in 5 major U.S. cities and how much they charge for an IUD insertion for patients without health insurance. The highest cost was observed to be $1,500 in New York. Meanwhile, the lowest cost was observed to be $1170 in San Jose. It is important to keep in mind that these costs may vary slightly depending on the brand of IUD used.
