What is Mirena?
“Mirena” or as it’s also called: the Intrauterine Hormonal Device, is a small, T-shaped IntraUterine System very similar to the classic IntraUterine Device made of copper or other metals such as silver that are placed inside the womb or uterus.
Unlike the copper T or silver T, Mirena slowly releases a hormone (Levonorgestrel), offering additional benefits besides contraception, which makes it a popular alternative to the conventional methods we have today.
