A Mirena IUD lasts 5 years actually. IUD = Intrauterine device, costs few hundred dollars, not entirely sure, but probably ~ 300? Most commonly nowadays IUD contain locally releasing hormones, such as Mirena. The failure rate of birth control pills is up to about 3% per year due to imperfect use. The failure rate of IUD is only about 0.2%. A family doctor can place an IUD, but some will refer to a gynecologist.

我买的是不带激素的IUD,这里只有1种叫nova, 德国拜耳出的。177刀。需要医生开处方。拿着处方去药店买就可以了。但是不是每个药店都有货。当时跑了3个药店才买到一个,还是最后一个了。另外一种听说是要300多刀,没想买就没去问。但听医生说有激素的会舒服一点而且会帮助减轻痛经。详细情况可以去birth control centre 问,那里的护士都很nice, 而且有这里有很多避孕措施提供,姐姐们可以去拿个小册子看一下,找自己喜欢的方式。
