A member asked:
Does st. john's wort permanently damage the implanon birth control? or just at the time of consuming the herb? am i still protected fully?
A doctor has provided 1 answer
No: St Johns wart will not permanently damage Nexplanon. Studies supporting St John’s wort’s value are limited so I usually recommended avoiding it and finding a better, safer alternative.
