The mechanism of action of the helix with the addition of LNG

Primary mechanism of action (local character):

thickening of the cervical mucus
inhibition of sperm motility
endometrial alteration

20mcg of levonorgestrel is released daily

the endometrium ceases to be sensitive to the action of ovarian hormones, due to a decrease in the amount of estrogen and progesterone receptors
suppressive changes in the endometrium are the reason for a significant reduction in the amount of menstrual bleeding (possible amenorrhea)
already within the first month, the endometrium becomes thin, inactive
gland atrophy is accompanied by the appearance of a decidual reaction and edema of the endometrial stroma
