Hello,
Thanks for trusting us with your health concern. In the current scenario, you could experience menstrual disturbances, infection at the insertion site, decreased effectiveness etc. I would ask you to contact your health care provider to plan further management. If the device is unfit for use, it should be removed and you will have to get a new one inserted. You have to use additional protection in the meanwhile. Hope you find this information useful. Wish you good health.
