The most likely scenario is that the doctor would put a small camera (optic fibre cable/scope) up through the vagina into the uterus, and retrieve the IUD by using the small tweezers on the end of the scope. It is called a hysteroscopy. This would cause minimal discomfort afterwards.
This procedure would be done under anaesthetic, and require only a day stay in hospital.
