What is the implantable contraceptive? is implanon an implantable contraceptive?

Long acting: It is a small, thin tube-like device that is implanted under the skin. It is very simple to do so. It provides excellent contraception for three years. It has no estrogen so there is no risk of blood clot, stroke, etc. It is associated with a fair amount of breakthrough bleeding.

Nexplanon: Nexplanon and implanon are both subdermal contraceptive implants that last for 3 years and can be placed easily and quickly with just some local anesthetic. It is well tolerated, very effective, with one of the only drawbacks being the occasional irregular spotting. It can be removed at any time, even before 3 years.
