Does A Mirena IUD Cause Foul Smelling Urination?

My urine has had a very foul smell for the past month or so. I recently had a Mirena IUD inserted at the end of March. I mentioned the odor to my OBGYN, and we checked for a UTI, and everything looked fine. But, the odor persists weeks later still. Could this be because of the IUD itself, the hormones associated with it, or is this Bacretial Vaginosis?
