I'm going to venture a guess that it's not a mole, but a seborrheic keratosis. They often itch considerably, and will sometimes come loose because of the scratching.

If that's all it is, it's nothing to worry about. If you're seeing a derm, he or she will probably remove it because it's causing you problems. They might numb the area and scrape it with a curette, or shave it off, or just freeze it with liquid nitrogen and wait for it to fall off. All methods are fine.

Moles generally should not itch, it's good you're having it looked at, cancerous moles usually have other characteristics such as change in shape, growing, or bleeding. They will probably remove it just because it's being annoying, in the mean time i wouldn't worry to much about it, but definitely see doc! Take Care!!

Similar thing happened to my husband except the mole was on his arm. He saw a dermatologist who removed it & had the tissue examined. Biopsy results just came back all clear.

Try not to worry. It's not hard for a dermatologist to remove it & the doctor should biopsy the tissue just to be sure.
