You should remove your IUD if you want to get pregnant, if you are pregnant, or if its useful life is expired and it's time to replace it.

Can you remove an IUD after 2 years?

You should be able to safely remove it whenever you want. There are some that last up to 5 years, but that doesn't necessarily mean that you can't remove it for that long. The point of an IUD is that you can have safe, non-permanent contraception for as long as you choose.


How painful to remove a 10 year IUD?

The risk of puncture (perforation) is very small but does happen occasionally. Having the IUD inserted and removed by a skilled practitioner reduces the risk. You should never attempt to remove an IUD by yourself.


Can the IUD be pushed out of its place?

You should never remove an IUD yourself. A medical professional will be able to remove an improperly positioned IUD, though if it isn't in a harmful place, often they will leave it as surgery is more invasive than the device. If you're concerned because of pain, go see your doctor. If you're concerned because of the way the strings feel or their length, your doctor can trim them for you as well.
