Nexplanon Implants
About Nexplanon Implants - Why and what to expect.
We offer Nexplanon, a small, flexible implant placed under the skin of your upper arm that provides reliable, long-lasting contraception. With over 99% effectiveness, Nexplanon is an excellent option for women seeking a convenient, hormone-based, reversible birth control method.
Why Choose Nexplanon?
Nexplanon is a small, matchstick-sized rod that releases a steady amount of the hormone progestin (etonogestrel) to prevent pregnancy. Once inserted, it works for up to 3 years, making it one of the most convenient forms of birth control available.

- Reversible – fertility returns quickly after removal
- Hormone-based – suitable for women who prefer non-IUD options
- No daily pills or routine procedures needed

What to Expect During Nexplanon Insertion
Getting a hormonal implant is a quick and straightforward procedure. Here’s what you can expect during the process:
The procedure takes approximately 10 minutes.
A small, local anesthetic is used to numb the insertion site.
The implant is placed just under the skin on your upper arm using a specialized inserter.
You may experience mild discomfort or cramping during the process, which we help manage with pain relief options tailored to your needs.
Aftercare and follow-up are simple but important parts of the implant process. You may notice some bruising, swelling, or mild pain at the insertion site, and it’s also normal to experience spotting or irregular bleeding at first. A routine follow-up visit is recommended to check the site and ensure everything is healing well, as well as to answer any questions you may have.
