Mirena® is 99.9% effective birth control for up to 5 years (or less, if you choose).
Mirena® is a tiny T-shaped piece of plastic that is placed into the uterus by your healthcare professional. Once Mirena is in place, it begins to slowly release small amounts of the hormone levonorgestrel into your uterus. It does not contain estrogen, so you can be free of estrogen-related side effects.
Mirena® is an estrogen-free intrauterine contraceptive (IUC) for women who are looking for a contraceptive option to help simplify their lives. It can be removed at any time for a quick return to fertility.
Mirena® does not protect against HIV/AIDS or other sexually transmitted infections.
Ovarian cysts may occur and typically disappear. Complications may occur from placement. Missing periods or irregular bleeding is common in the first few months, followed by shorter lighter periods.
