Can the IUD travel from the womans uterus to other parts of her body, such as her heart or her brain?
The IUD normally stays within the uterus like a seed within a shell. Very rarely, the IUD may come through the wall of the uterus and rest in the abdomen. This is probably due to a mistake-during insertion and not to slow movement through the wall of the uterus. The IUD never travels to any other part of the body.
