Progesterone Implant Insertion

Implanon insertion is a procedure to place a small, flexible contraceptive rod under the skin of the upper arm. This rod releases a steady dose of progestin, providing effective birth control for up to three years. During the procedure, your Eluvo OBGYN numbs the area and uses a specialized applicator to insert the rod just beneath the skin. The insertion typically takes just a few minutes and is performed in a clinic setting. While some mild discomfort or bruising may occur at the insertion site, the process is generally well-tolerated. Implanon offers a convenient, long-acting contraceptive option that allows for worry-free family planning. Regular follow-up appointments are recommended to monitor the insertion site and discuss ongoing contraceptive needs.
