What are the chances of getting pregnant with an expired Mirena?

The chances of getting pregnant with an expired Mirena (over 5 years in the uterus) are probably lower than if you had no method at all, but are not the same as the effectiveness before the expiration date. See your health care provider to determine if you'd like a new Mirena inserted or want to change to another method.
