Who can file a Mirena injury lawsuit?
Contact a Tennessee Mirena injury attorney to evaluate your prospective litigation claim if you have suffered from any adverse events after using the IUD birth control or had injuries following its internal migration.
What is Mirena IUD birth control?
Mirena is a T-shaped contraceptive placed as an intrauterine device. It contains synthetic levonorgestrel hormone that is released slowly over the years and prevents ovulation. The manufacturer presented the contraceptive as a safer, more convenient, and longer substitute to pills. Once inserted it lasts from three to five years.
Who makes Mirena IUD birth control? When it was introduced?
Mirena IUD birth control was introduced in 2000. Bayer is the manufacturer of Mirena intrauterine device.
Why there are Mirena injury lawsuits?
About 2,500 Mirena injury lawsuits have been filed against manufacturer Bayer citing “failure to warn, design defect, negligence, negligent design, fraud, breach of warranty, gross negligence, and violation of Consumer Sales Practices Acts.” Mirena injury lawyers in Tennessee, Kentucky, Arkansas, and elsewhere are busy evaluating hundreds of such claims following media revelations, research studies, and consumer groups highlighting the IUD adverse effects.
MedWatch reports indicate at least 40,000 Mirena migration, perforation, infections, ectopic pregnancy, streptococcal sepsis, ovarian cyst, and other adverse event complaints in the past five years. Over 5,000 had serious injuries requiring surgical intervention while more than 2,000 underwent partial or complete hysterectomy.

Is there any medical study linking Mirena to uterus perforation and other injuries?
There are many research reports that are often quoted by a Tennessee Mirena injury attorney during evaluation and trial of claims. A 2012 study endorsed by the American Public Health Association discovered that “majority of doctors” consider the IUD unsafe for fear of complications. Similar findings were also reported in a survey by the Centers for Disease Control and Prevention.
The American Journal of Obstetrics and Gynecology published a report in 2013 that asked young women to shun Mirena birth control. Other similar warnings include Mirena perforation risk by the Society of Laparoendoscopic Surgeons, breast cancer risk by Obstetrics & Gynecology journal, and rheumatoid arthritis risk by the American College of Rheumatology.
