A member asked:
How does nexplanon end up failing to protect against pregnancy? what causes it to fail? give examples please.
A doctor has provided 1 answer
VERY Very rare: Nexplanon has the highest efficacy rate of any reversible form of contraceptions. Failures are exceedingly rare. The few documented cases are most commonly from someone being pregnant but too early for detection at the time of insertion.
