Bot GPT 4-o mini If the contraceptive implant (such as Nexplanon) partially or fully pops out of your arm, its effectiveness in preventing pregnancy may be compromised. The implant works by releasing hormones to prevent ovulation, and if it is not properly placed under the skin, it may not provide reliable contraception.
If the implant has come out, it is important to:
- Check if you can see or feel the implant: If it is visibly protruding or has fallen out completely, you should not rely on it for contraception.
- Consult a healthcare provider: If the implant has come out, you should see a healthcare provider as soon as possible. They can provide advice and assistance.
- Consider alternative contraception: If you have had unprotected intercourse after the implant has come out, it may be a good idea to consider emergency contraception, depending on the timing of the event.
It's always best to discuss any concerns or questions with a healthcare professional to ensure you receive the most accurate and personalized guidance.
