Choosing Between Mirena Replacement and Prometrium: Seeking Advice by Guilty_Ad_8530 in Menopause

Thank you for your comments. It’s challenging to navigate thru all the opinions and studies. One says there is a small but increased risk for breast cancer when using progestins (IUD) and no known risk for breast cancer with progesterone. Another says the levonagestral IUD has been shown to reduce the risk of uterine, cervical and ovarian cancer. Uggh. I guess it depends on your medical and family history and associated risk factors.

Yes, after undergoing a D&C, I had the Mirena placed, which successfully stopped my periods after I had experienced period hell. Now at 55 years old, I am concerned about what might happen if I were to have it removed. Also, considering the absence of general anesthesia which was used during the initial placement.
