If you leave the copper IUD in too long, there are no potential health problems. If you leave a hormonal IUD like Mirena in too long, you may not be protected against pregnancy, but there are no other risks.
Mirena Iud has a drug coating that last up to five years and prevents the egg from attaching. A regular IUD prevents pregnancy but is not 100%.
If you start within the first five days of menstrual bleeding, the contraceptive implant is effective immediately. If you start at any other time during your period, you need to use a backup for the first seven days.

There is an IUD (intrauterine device) called Paraguard, which is made of copper that can provide effective birth control for up to 10 years (10 years is as long as it has been studied). As far as I know there is no birth control that lasts 12 years. Paraguard is a small "T" shaped device that is inserted into the uterus through the cervix in a small office procedure and can be removed by the physician at any time in the event that you would desire to have children. There is another IUD on the market currently, called Mirena, which is made of plastic and which releases a small amount of progesterone (a natural hormone in a woman's body). The Mirena IUD lasts up to 5 years. The IUD works by preventing ovulation (Mirena) and/or by preventing a fertilized egg from implanting into the uterus, which is necessary for a pregnancy to continue.
Mirena is an IUD, or intrauterine device. It is a T shaped device that a professional inserts in your uterus to prevent pregnancies. It is good for up to five years then you will visit your doctor again to get another one inserted.
There are a lot of alternative options besides the pill. There is the patch, the Depro shot, an IUD (t-shaped object that is inserted into the uterus. Lasts up to anywhere from 5-10 years), and condoms.
Yes, it's normal to charge for an IUD follow up appointment if it's not in the global period.
If you leave the copper IUD in too long, there are no potential health problems. If you leave a hormonal IUD like Mirena in too long, you may not be protected against pregnancy, but there are no other risks.
