The Mirena IUD: Gender Affirming, Not Just Birth Control
The Mirena IUD is not just birth control for many transmasculine and non-binary people. It helps reduce or stop periods and ease gender dysphoria. It is safe to use with testosterone and offers low-maintenance hormonal control without daily pills. Insertion can be uncomfortable so ask for trauma-informed care and support. Mirena can help you feel more at home in your body.
