What is the Mirena Coil?
The Mirena coil, also known as the Mirena intrauterine system (IUS), is a small, T-shaped device made of flexible plastic that is inserted into the uterus.
This device releases a progesterone-based hormone called Levonorgestrel, providing long-lasting contraceptive benefits and may also address specific health concerns such as abnormal uterine bleeding.
Why choose the Mirena Coil?
The Mirena coil is not only a highly-effective contraceptive method but also offers additional benefits, such as:
- Managing heavy menstrual bleeding
- Reducing pain associated with periods
- Treating symptoms of endometriosis
- Providing an alternative to oral contraceptives
- Offering endometrial protection during hormone replacement therapy (HRT)
Its versatility makes it a preferred choice for women seeking both contraception and relief from certain medical conditions.
How long does Mirena Coil Stay in Place?
For most uses, including contraception and treatment of heavy periods, the Mirena Coil can be used for up to 8 years. After this period its efficacy diminishes, and it should be replaced or removed to avoid potential complications such as infection or decreased effectiveness.
If you are using the Mirena Coil as the progestogen element of HRT it can only be used for 5 years, after which time it is important to have it replaced or use an alternative progestogen preparation. Leaving a coil in place beyond its recommended duration may lead to adverse effects so timely removal is important.
Alternatives to the Mirena Coil
In some cases, you may prefer to use a hormone coil with lower doses of hormones, or a hormone-free coil. Dr Martin can help you decide which option is right for your specific needs.
