NEXPLANON is a small, matchstick-sized contraceptive implant that is placed just beneath the skin of the upper arm. It releases a continuous dose of the hormone etonogestrel, which prevents pregnancy by stopping ovulation, thickening cervical mucus, and thinning the uterine lining. NEXPLANON® is a highly effective form of birth control, with over 99% effectiveness for up to three years. The implant is easily reversible, meaning it can be removed at any time if pregnancy is desired, with fertility typically returning quickly after removal. It is a convenient option for women seeking a long-term contraceptive that doesn’t require daily attention.
Main Treatment Areas
NEXPLANON is used for long-term contraception in women. Its primary function is to prevent pregnancy through the slow and steady release of etonogestrel, which:
- Inhibits ovulation: Preventing the release of eggs from the ovaries.
- Thickens cervical mucus: Making it harder for sperm to enter the uterus.
- Thins the uterine lining: Making it less likely for a fertilized egg to implant.
NEXPLANON is an ideal contraceptive solution for women looking for a hassle-free method that doesn’t require daily or monthly maintenance.
Key Benefits
- Highly Effective: NEXPLANON provides over 99% effectiveness in preventing pregnancy, one of the highest rates among birth control methods.
- Long-Lasting: One implant lasts for up to three years, offering long-term protection without the need for daily pills or monthly injections.
- Convenient and Reversible: Once inserted, no further action is required, making it an ideal choice for women with busy lifestyles. If a woman wishes to become pregnant, the implant can be easily removed, and fertility returns rapidly.
- Safe for Many Women: NEXPLANON is suitable for women who cannot take estrogen-based contraceptives, as it contains only progestin. It is also safe for use during breastfeeding.
Safety Information
NEXPLANON is generally well-tolerated, but it may cause side effects. Common side effects include changes in menstrual bleeding patterns, such as irregular or missed periods, headache, weight gain, acne, and breast tenderness. Less commonly, the implant site may experience bruising, pain, or infection. Rare but serious side effects include blood clots, especially in women with a history of clotting disorders, and ectopic pregnancy in case of contraceptive failure. Women who have liver disease, breast cancer, or a history of blood clots should avoid using NEXPLANON®. It is important to discuss any potential risks with a healthcare provider before choosing NEXPLANON as a contraceptive option.
