Can I Have Mirena Iud Insertion When Having Blood Pressure?

Hi, i am 43 yrs old and considering getting a IUD to control my hormones and anxiety. However, my blood pressure goes up and down. My doctor put me on a low dosage birth control pill estrogen only. Do you think that I could be a good candidate for Mirana IUD?
