if it has punctured the uterus wall, or if it has slipped out without you knowing.
A Multiload IUD is a copper IUD.
The Mirena can cause periods to stop, it releases a low level of synthetic progesterone. A copper IUD may cause periods to stop, but doesn't generally have this effect soon after placement. Depending on the type of IUD and the length of time it has been in place - you may want to check in with the doctor who placed it to see if you need a pregnancy test. Generally if an IUD is going to fail it does so in the first 3 months.
The ParaGard IUD is T shaped and it contains copper.
You can get trichomoniasis regardless of whether you have an IUD. The IUD does not cause or prevent trich.
Yes. All birth control methods can fail. If you feel that you could be pregnant with an IUD in place you should take a home pregnancy test and/or see a Dr right away due to risks to you and to the baby.
You can get an infection with or without the IUD. Expulsion of an IUD doesn't increase the risk of infection.
How do you get your IUD removed

For 9yrs, copper IUD has protected me against pregnancy. I had sharp pain for the first few days after insertion, then after it got better. I had heavy periods accompanied with cramps. But it was highly effective as a contraceptive, though I did develop endometriosis and had it operated through laproscopy.
Allergy to copper or Wilson's disease are contraindications to the copper IUD that don't apply to the levonorgestrel IUD. In addition, severe anemia is a contraindication for the copper IUD, but may be an indication for the levonorgestrel IUD, particularly if the anemia is exacerbated by heavy periods.
Fertility returns to your baseline after removal of the IUD. Whether it's easy to get pregnant after removal depends on your fertility, not the IUD.
