Answer by  Learner (350)

If you are pregnant, it is highly recommended and safe to remove the Intrauterine Device (IUD) on the same day itself. The abortion rate for women, who conceive despite the presence of UID, is 25% when the IUD is removed immediately, whereas abortion rate becomes 50% when IUD is left in place. It is safe to remove IUD during pregnancy.

If you become pregnant with in IUD it will be left for the duration of the pregnancy. It is more dangerous to remove it then it is to leave it. Once the placenta takes over hormone production, at about twelve weeks, the risk of miscarriage from the IUD as well as other reasons drops.
