A member asked:
I've been on nexplanon since last year, 18 years old. i want kids in like 8 yrs. if i keep getting nexplanon,will this affect my future fertility?

Will not affect it.: Congratulations for choosing one of the most effective methods of contraception. Your Nexplanon can be replaced by another one in a few years and kept in till you decide to get pregnant. There is no data to suggest that future fertility is or can be affected by prolonged use of Nexplanon.
