LEVONORGESTREL (Norplant®) is a contraceptive (birth control) device that is surgically implanted under the skin. The device releases the hormone levonorgestrel, a progestin, in the body to prevent pregnancy for up to 5 years. Once the implant capsules are removed, fertility quickly returns to normal. Generic levonorgestrel implant capsules are not yet available. NOTE: Norplant® is discontinued in the US as of mid-2002.
