1 IUD (8 years) — 52 mg
Mirena is an intrauterine device (IUD) used for long-term birth control. It is also used to treat heavy menstrual bleeding, endometriosis, and pelvic pain.
Mirena is a long-term, reversible form of birth control that is placed in your uterus by a healthcare provider. It releases a small amount of the hormone progestin, which thickens the cervical mucus, making it more difficult for sperm to reach an egg and fertilize it. It also thins the lining of the uterus, making it difficult for a fertilized egg to implant in the uterine wall. Mirena is over 99% effective at preventing pregnancy and can be left in place for up to five years. It is a convenient and discreet form of birth control that allows you to have regular periods while providing reliable protection against pregnancy. Mirena is also FDA-approved to treat heavy menstrual bleeding.
It can reduce monthly blood loss by 90%, allowing you to live your life without worrying about heavy or irregular periods. Mirena is a safe and effective form of birth control that can help you take control of your reproductive health.
