Nexplanon If you're looking for a long-term contraceptive that does not require daily, weekly, or monthly dosing, Implanon may be an option for you. Nexplanon is a long-acting prescription contraceptive that lasts for up to 3 years. Unlike many other forms of birth control, it does not require daily, weekly, monthly or quarterly dosing. Just one inserstion in your inner, upper arm lasts for up to 3 years and offers reliable protection against pregnancy. Nexplanon is a flexible rod, about the size of a matchstick, that is place under the skin of your inner, upper arm by your physician. Implanon contains a hormone called etonogestrel, but does not contain estorgen. Only you and your provider will know it is there. Most women cannot see Implanon after insertion, but you should be able to feel it by pressing gently on your skin in the area where it was inserted. Nexplanon works in several ways to prevent pregnancy. It prevents your body from ovulating (releasing and egg). Implanon also thickens the cervical mucus, which then acts as a barrier to preven sperm from reaching and fertilizing an egg. Implanon is a reliable form of birth control with more than a 99% effective rate. Nexplanon is reversible. If you change your mind and decide you want to have a baby, the ability to become pregnant usually returns quickly after your provider successfully removes Implanon. Some women have become pregnant within days after removal. Mirena Because you're busy, you need a birth control that helps simplify your life. Mirena is a hormone-releasing system placed in your uterus to prevent pregnancy for as long as you want for up to 5 years. Mirena also treats heavy periods in women who choose intrauterine contraception. Mirena is a small intrauterine contraceptive made of soft, flexible plastic that is put in place by your provider during an office visit. Mirena prevents pregnancy for as long as you want, for up to 5 years. Mirena releases small amounts of the hormone levonorgestrel into your uterus. Mirena may work in several different ways, such as, thickening the cervical mucus to prevent sperm from entering your uterus, inhibit sperm from reaching or fertilizing an egg, make the lining of your uterus thin, and it may stop the release of your egg from your ovary, but this is not the way it works in most cases. Mirena is a removable device and can be removed at any time by your provider. Because Mirena can be removed at any time by your healthcare provider, you are free to keep your family planning options open.
