Hello, I have read that St. John's wort affects the effectiveness of contraceptives. What about the effectiveness of IUDs (Mirena, Kyleena)?

Hello,
St. John's wort does not significantly affect the effectiveness of IUDs. Both the mirena and the kyleena are safe in the presence of St. John's wort.
PS: Copper IUDs are even safer and more effective.
