NO. Once thought to cause an increase in risk for pelvic infections, infertility, and ectopic pregnancy, those myths have been dispelled, and IUDs have been found to be one of the safest methods of contraception available. And unlike some other methods, a woman is able to get pregnant as soon as the device is removed.

FYI: IUDs are also one of the most effective methods of contraception because they virtually eliminate the risk of "user error" (i.e., missing a dose of your Birth Control pill or tearing a hole in the condom).
