What is Implanon used for? 

Implanon is a small, thin plastic rod usually inserted under the skin and is used to prevent pregnancy. This product works by slowly releasing etonogestrel into your body over three years. If you are overweight or using other drugs, this product might not work as well.

How to use Implanon?

Your doctor or healthcare professional will insert an Implanon under your skin in your upper arm. Typically, the rod will be inserted on the arm that you do not write with. You should feel the rod under your skin after use. If the rod has been broken or bent, call your doctor immediately. Your doctor might instruct you to take a pregnancy test before using Implanon. 

This product will start working immediately when inserted during your first five-day period. Follow your doctor’s instructions carefully to ensure a safe procedure to implant the rod.
