Progesterone IUDs can be used to suppress endometriosis, particularly in patients with mood disorders.

“So, one of the um methods that I use to suppress endometriosis is actually a proesterine IUD like Kylina or Merina IUD. Morina IUD is the most common progesterone IUD used in this country. um if you use it for you know it's a method of birth control and it can last for eight years sometimes we use it for heavy period and you use it for 5 years but I use it very often in my patients with endometriosis or adnomiiosis for young girls who haven't had children I tend to go with the smaller IUD because Marina IUD is slightly larger than the Kylina IUD so I love the Kylina IUD and I'm not advertising for it I'm just saying it because it really works. So for patients who have a lot of mood disorders, then I might go to these IUDs which are more local in suppressing the endometriosis in the pelvis.”
