Hmmm....I would get more specifics here. If they SAW it, then they KNOW where it is. It must NOT be in the uterus, and for some reason perforated through. I would get much more informaton before going for any kind of surgery. No, this is not AT ALL normal. The IUD shouldn't be painful, and usualy resides right in the uterus. Ask for a secon opinino if necessary, from a different practice. However, if the IUD isn't where it should be, your initial gyn needs to cover the costs of any expenses incurd rectifying the problem.
