Nexplanon is the newest long-acting reversible birth control method on the market and is getting rave reviews from patients, especially young single women. It is a single rod about the size of a Bobby pin that is placed on the underside of your non-dominant arm. It lasts up to three years but can be easily removed before then. It takes only about 5-10 minutes to have it inserted in the office.
Advantages of Nexplanon are its ease of insertion and removal. Most women consider this easier than insertion of an IUD, for instance, which is our other main long-acting contraceptive. Even better is that most women have shorter, lighter periods and some women have their periods stop completely while the Nexplanon is in place. At Women’s Wellness Center Nexplanon implants are inserted at your convenience by Laurie Smith, Nurse Practitioner. Over the past year she has had many women choose this method and over 90 percent are completely satisfied.
