Mirena
Buy Mirena to help your female patients avoid unwanted pregnancy. This product is a T-shaped, plastic intrauterine device that contains a female hormone called levonorgestrel, which is a female hormone that can change the uterus and cervix.
Who benefits the most from Mirena
This product is great for women who do not have any plans on getting pregnant, and want to actively avoid pregnancy. It can also be used to treat heavy menstrual bleeding for women that choose IUDs as a birth control.
Areas treated with Mirena
This product is placed inside the uterus of the patient.
How does Mirena work?
Mirena is the first and only hormonal IUD that is FDA approved to be used on patients experiencing heavy periods or heavy menstrual bleeding who choose IUDs as their birth control. The product is placed inside the uterus, and once it is inserted, the levonorgestrel does its job. Levonorgestrel is a progestine hormone that is used in a lot of birth control methods, and is actually naturally excreted by the body, and the IUD releases it slowly so that it doesn’t reach the bloodstream. The solution also has no estrogen, and should never be used as an emergency birth control.
Treatment Details
Mirena will be inserted into the uterus by a doctor through the vagina. The doctor will use a special injector to place the device inside the uterus, which will then release the horizontal arms, locking the device in place, and ensuring that accidental ejection will be unlikely.
How long does Mirena last?
This form of birth control protects female patients from unwanted pregnancy for a relatively long time, and with Mirena, it has been known to provide birth control for up to 7 years. For women who use IUDs and suffer from heavy menstrual bleeding, this can treat them for up to 5 years.
Safety Information

Bottom line
This product is able to thicken the mucus in the cervix, thereby stopping the sperm from fertilizing the egg. The lines of the uterine wall will also thin, partially suppressing the ovulation, which is why Mirena has a 99% success rate of stopping pregnancy for the 7 years it is effective.
