Implanon contains the active ingredient etonogestrel. It is a long-acting contraceptive implant used to prevent pregnancy in women of reproductive age.
The implant is a small, flexible rod that is placed under the skin of the upper arm by a trained healthcare professional.
Implanon is used for pregnancy prevention.
Once inserted, it continuously releases a small amount of etonogestrel into the bloodstream over time.
Implanon belongs to a group of hormones called progestins.
It prevents pregnancy mainly by stopping ovulation, which means preventing the ovary from releasing an egg.
Implanon also makes the cervical mucus thicker.
This makes it more difficult for sperm to move through the cervix and reach an egg.
Etonogestrel can also make the lining of the uterus thinner.
This creates an environment that is less suitable for a fertilized egg to implant.
Implanon provides continuous contraception without requiring a pill to be taken every day.
Because it works for an extended period after insertion, it can be a convenient option for people who want long-term pregnancy prevention.
Implanon is reversible.
The implant can be removed by a healthcare professional when contraception is no longer wanted or if the method needs to be changed.
Fertility usually returns relatively quickly after removal.
Implanon helps prevent pregnancy, but it does not protect against sexually transmitted infections (STIs).
Condoms may still be recommended when protection against STIs is needed.
After insertion, your healthcare provider may check that the implant is in the correct position and discuss any changes in bleeding patterns or other side effects.
Contact your healthcare provider if you cannot feel the implant, notice significant changes around the insertion site, or have concerns about how it is working.
Implanon is a small, flexible plastic rod that is inserted under the skin of the upper arm by a trained healthcare professional.
The implant slowly releases etonogestrel, a progestin hormone, into the body over time. It does not contain estrogen.
Implanon is designed to provide pregnancy prevention for up to 3 years.
During this time, it continuously releases a small amount of etonogestrel, so you do not need to remember a daily birth control pill.
Your healthcare provider will help determine the best time in your menstrual cycle to insert the implant.
A pregnancy test may be needed before insertion to make sure you are not already pregnant.
If Implanon is inserted during the first 5 days of your menstrual period, contraceptive protection generally begins right away.
If it is inserted at another time in your cycle, you may need to use a non-hormonal backup method, such as condoms, for the first 7 days after insertion.
Follow your healthcare provider’s instructions about backup contraception.
After the implant is placed, you and your healthcare provider should be able to feel the rod under the skin.
Knowing where the implant is located can help you notice if something changes.
Contact your healthcare provider if you cannot feel the implant, think it has moved, or believe it may be bent or damaged.
After insertion, the area is usually covered with a pressure bandage and a smaller adhesive bandage.
The pressure bandage is often kept in place for about 24 hours, while the smaller bandage may stay on for several days, depending on your healthcare provider’s instructions.
Keep the area clean and dry while it heals.
Mild tenderness, bruising, swelling, or soreness around the insertion site can occur for a short time.
Contact your healthcare provider if you develop increasing redness, warmth, swelling, drainage, severe pain, or other signs of infection.
Implanon must be removed by a trained healthcare professional.
It should not be removed at home.
The implant can be removed at any time if you no longer want contraception, if you develop side effects, or if your healthcare provider recommends changing your birth control method.
If you want to continue using an implant for birth control after the approved treatment period, your healthcare provider can remove the old implant and insert a new one.
This can often be done during the same appointment.
The contraceptive effect does not permanently affect fertility.
Ovulation and the ability to become pregnant may return relatively quickly after the implant is removed.
Contact your healthcare provider if you cannot feel the implant, notice significant changes around the insertion site, develop unusual symptoms, or have concerns about whether the implant is still in place.
Following the recommended insertion, care, and replacement schedule helps Implanon provide reliable long-term contraception.
Implanon (Etonogestrel) is available in the following forms and strength:
Implanon can sometimes cause problems at the insertion or removal site.
These may include pain, bruising, swelling, irritation, scarring, or infection. In rare cases, the implant may be difficult to locate or remove.
Contact your healthcare provider if the area becomes very painful, red, swollen, or begins to drain.
Hormonal contraceptives can be associated with blood clot and blood vessel problems, although progestin-only implants generally have a lower clotting risk than contraceptives that contain estrogen.
Seek urgent medical attention if you develop symptoms such as sudden chest pain, shortness of breath, severe leg swelling, weakness on one side of the body, or sudden vision changes.
Changes in bleeding patterns are very common with Implanon.
You may experience irregular bleeding, spotting, longer or shorter periods, heavier or lighter bleeding, or no periods at all.
These changes are usually not dangerous, but contact your healthcare provider if bleeding is unusually heavy, prolonged, or concerning.
Certain medicines can reduce the effectiveness of Implanon.
This may include some seizure medicines, tuberculosis treatments, HIV medications, and herbal products such as St. John’s wort.
Tell your healthcare provider about all prescription medicines, over-the-counter products, and supplements you use.
Some people may notice mood changes, irritability, tiredness, or depressive symptoms while using Implanon.
If mood changes become severe or interfere with daily life, contact your healthcare provider.
Some people may experience weight gain or weight loss while using the implant.
Weight changes can have many causes, so discuss any significant or unexplained change with your healthcare provider.
You may develop temporary itching, redness, swelling, tenderness, or rash around the insertion site.
Seek medical advice if the reaction is severe, spreads, or does not improve.
Etonogestrel can pass into breast milk in small amounts.
Implanon can often be used while breastfeeding, but the timing of insertion and your individual situation should be discussed with your healthcare provider.
Pregnancy with Implanon is uncommon, but if pregnancy does occur, there is a possibility that it could be ectopic, meaning the pregnancy develops outside the uterus.
Seek medical attention if you have a positive pregnancy test along with severe lower abdominal pain, shoulder pain, dizziness, or fainting.
Implanon may not be appropriate if you have current or previous breast cancer or another hormone-sensitive cancer.
Tell your healthcare provider about any personal history of breast cancer before using the implant.
Contact your healthcare provider if you cannot feel the implant, develop severe bleeding, have signs of infection, think you may be pregnant, or experience other unusual symptoms.
Regular follow-up can help make sure the implant remains in the correct position and continues to be appropriate for you.
Implanon may be used while breastfeeding in many cases. Small amounts of etonogestrel can pass into breast milk, so it is important to discuss the timing of insertion and your individual situation with your healthcare provider.
Implanon is inserted under the skin of the upper arm by a trained healthcare professional. The implant can also be removed at any time by a qualified healthcare professional if you no longer want contraception, develop side effects, or need to switch to another birth control method.
Implanon is designed to provide pregnancy prevention for up to 3 years. After that period, it should be removed. A new implant can usually be inserted if you want to continue using this type of birth control.
No. Implanon helps prevent pregnancy, but it does not protect against sexually transmitted infections (STIs). Condoms can be used in addition to the implant to help reduce the risk of STIs.
