before anything else, what is Mirena?


Monic - February 22nd, 2011 4:19 PM

Mirena is a type of intrauterine contraceptive that can help prevent pregnancy for up to five years. This device is inserted into the uterus and slowly releases a hormone that stops ovulation (in some women), alters the cervical mucus, and changes the lining of the uterus.

Mirena is an intrauterine contraceptive (IUC) used to provide long-term birth control. It is a small, flexible polyethylene (plastic) device that contains levonorgestrel, a progesterone hormone.

if i'm nto mistaken, mirena is designed for women who have had at least one child.

Mirena is also approved to treat heavy menstrual bleeding in women who choose intrauterine contraception.
