Mirena (levonorgestrel)?: The newest addition to birth control is the Mirena iud. Mirena is manufactured by bayer (aspirin). It is a flexible intrauterine device that is placed through the vagina by a healthcare provider. Mirena releases a continuous dose of hormone (levonorgestrel) to prevent pregnancy for up to five years. There have been problems reported with it and you should see your gynecologist.
