BIRTH CONTROL THAT LASTS UP TO 3 YEARS

You're looking for a method of contraception. Perhaps it's the first method you'll use, or maybe you're looking for something that does not require daily, weekly, or monthly dosing. Or maybe you're done having children, but are concerned that sterilization is just too final.

IMPLANON is a flexible plastic rod the size of a matchstick that is put under the skin of your arm in an in office procedure.

EFFECTIVE BIRTH CONTROL

IMPLANON is more than 99% effective: the chance of getting pregnant is less than 1 pregnancy per 100 women who use IMPLANON for 1 year when IMPLANON is inserted correctly. IMPLANON prevents pregnancy in several ways. The most important way is by stopping release of an egg from your ovary. IMPLANON also thickens the cervical mucus, which acts as a barrier to prevent sperm from fertilizing an egg.
