Primary Outcome

  • Number of pregnancies per 100 women years (Pearl Index [PI]) within years 6 thru 8 of Mirena use
    The Pearl Index (PI) is defined as the number of pregnancies per 100 women years. The 3-year PI (Years 6 to 8) was obtained by dividing the number of pregnancies the occurred during that time (starting at Day 1 Year 6 and up to Day 365 of Year 8) by the time (in 100 women years) that the women were at risk of getting pregnant during that time.
    date_rangeTime Frame:
    Years 6 to 8 of Mirena use

Secondary Outcome

  • Menstrual blood loss (MBL) during a 30-day period starting at the baseline visit and at the end of Years 6, 7 and 8
    Menstrual blood loss (MBL) during a 30-day period starting at the baseline visit and at the end of Year 6, Year 7, and Year 8, measured by the alkaline hematin method. The assessment of this variable was restricted to women who had Mirena inserted for heavy menstrual bleeding (HMB).
    date_rangeTime Frame:
    Baseline and end of Years 6, 7 and 8 of Mirena use
  • Number of participants with Menstrual Blood Loss (MBL) (>= 80 ml Per 30 Days) at end of Year 6, 7 and 8 of Mirena use
    Categorized menstrual blood loss (MBL) (≥ 80 mL per 30 days) at end of Year 6, Year 7, and Year 8. The assessment of this variable was restricted to women who had Mirena inserted for HMB.
    date_rangeTime Frame:
    At end of Year 6, 7 and 8 of Mirena use
  • Number of participants with treatment-emergent adverse events (TEAEs)
    Adverse event (AE) was defined as any untoward medical occurrence (ie any unfavorable and unintended sign [including abnormal laboratory findings], symptom or disease) in a patient or clinical investigation subject after providing written informed consent for participation in the study. Serious adverse event (SAE) was defined as any untoward medical occurrence that, at any dose 1) resulted in death, 2) was life-threatening, 3) required inpatient hospitalization or prolongation of existing hospitalization, 4) resulted in persistent or significant disability/incapacity, 5) was a congenital anomaly/birth defect, or 6) was another medically important serious event as judged by the investigator. Treatment-emergent adverse event (TEAE) was defined as an AE that occurred on Day 1 Year 6 of Mirena use or later.
    date_rangeTime Frame:
    Years 6 to 8 of Mirena use
