A member asked:

I have the nexplanone implant and i was wondering if the implant will effect the results of an at home pregnancy test?

A doctor has provided 1 answer

Probably not: Nexplanon, a subdermal contraceptive hormonal implant releases progestins into your body to prevent you from ovulating and reduce your risks of getting pregnant. On the other hand, the urine and blood pregnancy tests work by detecting another hormone called betaHuman-Chorionic-Gonadotropin (betaHCG).It is quite unlikely that progestins would "effect the results of a urine home pregnancy test".
