Best Answer

If you can feel the IUD coming out you need to contact your health care provider so that it can be removed. You may not have pregnancy protection, so consider the morning after pill if you've had sex in the last five days. Use a backup method of Birth Control until you know that the IUD is protecting you.

In the unlikely event that the IUD is embedded in the wall of the uterus, your health care can remove it via hysteroscopy.
