Mirena

Mirena is a small, T-shaped device inserted into the uterus by a healthcare provider. It releases a low dose of the hormone progestin, which thickens cervical mucus to prevent sperm from reaching an egg and thins the uterine lining to reduce the chance of pregnancy. Mirena is a long-acting, reversible form of contraception that can provide effective protection for up to five years. It may also help manage heavy menstrual bleeding. It is generally well-tolerated, but some women may experience side effects such as irregular bleeding or hormonal symptoms. Always consult a healthcare professional to determine if it's appropriate for you.
