What is Mirena and how does it work?
Mirena is a small, T-shaped device inserted into the uterus by a healthcare professional.

It can also thin the lining of the uterus, making it less receptive to implantation.
Mirena is a highly effective reversible birth control method, lasting up to 7 years. While it’s effective in preventing pregnancy, it’s important to remember that it does not protect against sexually transmitted infections (STIs).
