Easy Method To Prevent pregnancy

Mirena IUD is used for preventing pregnancy for up to 5 years in certain women. It is also used to treat heavy menstrual bleeding. Mirena IUD is a progestin intrauterine device (IUD). It may work in several ways. It may change cervical mucus to prevent the sperm from reaching the egg. It may also change the lining of the uterus to prevent implantation in the uterus if an egg is fertilized. This change in the lining of the uterus also helps to decrease heavy menstrual bleeding.

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. Mirena is also proven to reduce heavy periods in women who choose intrauterine contraception.
