Q: can nexplanon cause me to develop blood clots while i woke a desk job?

: It increases the risk of venous thrombosis for anyone with a sedentary job but it does not cause it. However, the risk with nexplanon is much lower than the conventional contraceptives which contain estrogen derivatives. Take care.
