Can pushing hard during a bowel movement mak iud come out?

Sometimes but...: Straining at stool on occasion may promote colonic emptying , but you do so at a cost--increased risk of hemorrhoids, anal fissures, & even passing out. The better question is, "why am i having a hard time feeling empty." work-up depends on your age, sex, medical problems, current drugs, level of activity, hydration. Rule out blockage, rectal dysfunction, inflammation, non-gi problems. Don't push!
