Mirena IUD is an intrauterine device (IUD).Mirena is a soft, flexible IUD that releases small amounts of hormone locally into your uterus. It gives you birth control you can count on—that lasts for as long as you want, for up to 5 years.
1. Mirena is more than 99% effective at preventing pregnancy
2. You can try to become pregnant as soon as Mirena is removed. Within a year of having Mirena removed, about 8 out of 10 women succeed at becoming pregnant
3. If you have a pelvic infection, get infections easily or have certain cancers, Mirena is not right for you
4. Mirena is also proven to reduce heavy periods in women who choose intrauterine contraception
But it is for the sake of information and does not constitute to be a medical advice. Consult a physician first. But, please don’t look for any medical advice in this forum, as it the prerogative of medical fraternity.
Good Luck...!!!

Mirena is a form of birth control. IUD stand for Intrauterine Device. Instead of taking a pill you insert this up your vagina. It works for like 5 years!!
