(Have we got a contraceptive for you!)
A lot can happen in five years. So, if you plan on using birth
control for a while, consider Mirena® – a tiny intrauterine
contraceptive that prevents pregnancy for up to five years.
It delivers small amounts of hormone directly to the uterus.
Made of soft, flexible plastic, Mirena is put in place by your doctor in just one office
visit. Of course, if you change your mind about wanting to get pregnant before five
years, it can be easily removed. It’s that simple.
What else does Mirena offer?
over 99% effective in preventing pregnancy
keeps hormone levels steadier and lower than the Pill
may also shorten or lighten your periods
won’t cause significant weight gain
No plans to get pregnant for a while? Consider Mirena.
