Hi, there are few procedures to see the iud. Dilating the cervix to see the iud or the giving anasthesia and use a scope to go in and find it to remove it. It is not a surgery but it can be painful.You need to rest atleast 2 days before heading to work because you may bleed and you may encounter some pain. Talk to your gynec about the procedure before you get in to it.Take care.
