I have read and was actually told by my midwife that the hormone released in the Mirena IUD only works on your uterus, but not in your blood stream.

I've had the Mirena IUD for more than a year now and have really not noticed the hormones at all. I've seen no effect from them. I'm very pleased with my decision to try the Mirena. Good luck in your decision!
