What You Need To Know About the Federal Investigation
Our attorneys are continuing to learn more about the counterfeit IUD and contraceptive devices placed by All Female OB/GYN in Virginia as we review the Department of Justice’s (DOJ)’s investigation. Federal authorities allege that Dr. Kanwal Khan bypassed safe U.S. supply chains by importing knockoff contraceptives from Pakistan. These unauthorized devices lacked the precise and reliable hormone dosage required to prevent pregnancy.
The DOJ’s Fraud Section is now pursuing federal criminal charges and engaging in plea-resolution negotiations with Dr. Khan. The investigation also has important implications for affected patients. Under the Crime Victims’ Rights Act, individuals harmed by these unreliable hormone dosages are legally entitled to full compensation.
What Are the Physical Consequences of These Counterfeit Devices?
Although the DOJ’s investigation is a serious legal matter, this case also has a significant human toll. Some women who had an IUD or contraceptive implant placed at All Female OB/GYN in Virginia are now facing unplanned pregnancies. Because the smuggled implants lacked standard pharmaceutical uniformity, they failed to deliver the hormone levels required to prevent pregnancy, resulting in unexpected pregnancies for patients who believed they were protected.
Injured women also report a range of painful symptoms following their visit with Dr. Khan, including intense pain and swelling in the arm where the device was inserted. Beyond localized reactions, many patients are experiencing sudden medical complications throughout their bodies. Independent physicians are still working to diagnose and treat these unpredicted physical reactions.

The faulty IUDs or contraceptive implants placed by All Female OB/GYN in Virginia were not the result of a minor administrative lapse. Dr. Khan is accused of using unauthorized medical imports, and her patients are now experiencing profound physical and psychological trauma. The breakdown of these devices has forced unexpected life changes, unplanned pregnancies, and escalating medical expenses onto women who relied on them for safe, effective contraception. A civil lawsuit seeks to recover compensation for these losses, which is relief that a criminal conviction alone cannot provide.
