Nexplanon ?'s: Nexplanon contains a progestin, and works by prevention of implantation via the action of the progestin on the uterine lining. Nexplanon is close in effectiveness to oral bcp's , and is not affected by herbal supplements. Since periods are often far apart on Nexplanon, if other symptoms suggest pregnancy, obtain a serum HCG test to be certain.
