Description
Implanon NXT (also known as Nexplanon) is a subdermal contraceptive implant containing 68mg of etonogestrel, a synthetic progestogen. It provides long-term birth control for up to three years after insertion.
Key Benefits:
- Long-term Contraception: Provides effective birth control for up to three years with a single insertion.
- Convenience: Once inserted, there is no need for daily attention, making it a convenient option for women.
- Reversible: Fertility typically returns quickly after removal of the implant.
- High Efficacy: It is over 99% effective in preventing pregnancy.
- No Estrogen: Suitable for women who cannot use estrogen-containing contraceptives.
How It Works:
- Release of Hormone: The implant slowly releases etonogestrel into the bloodstream, preventing ovulation, thickening cervical mucus to block sperm, and thinning the uterine lining to prevent implantation.
Insertion and Removal:
- Insertion: Performed by a trained healthcare provider under local anesthesia. The implant is placed just under the skin of the inner upper arm.
- Removal: Also done by a healthcare provider. The implant can be removed at any time, and a new one can be inserted if continued contraception is desired.
