What is Mirena?
Mirena is one particular brand of IUD that releases hormones slowly over time to help women avoid conception. It is one of the most common IUDs used for pregnancy prevention, and many women find that it is incredibly effective for them. Women can have the IUD inserted during a general appointment by one of our professionals, and leave the IUD in for several years before it will need to be replaced.
Why do women choose Mirena?
Because Mirena releases hormones, it works with your body’s cycle to prevent conception. It is used by millions of women in the United States with reliable results. It is extremely effective, and the chance of pregnancy with an IUD is rare but not impossible. Many women love the ability to have a device placed and avoid daily medications they have to remember. It also allows long-term partners to eliminate the need for condoms. It is a no-fuss method of family planning that most women enjoy. It is also an affordable option for many, and may be covered by a patient’s medical insurance in part or in whole depending on their available benefits.
