A member asked:
Can males use nexplanon (implanon)? is it true that etonogestrel is a male contraceptive? how do i get the doc to prescribe it for males?

No: Implanon is meant for female. Instead of taking a pill , you may be better off wearing a condom which would also reduce the risk for getting STD as well.
