I am 21 and have had the implanon birth control since October, and it has pushed its way close to the surface of my skin and feels like its going to push through and if I lean on my arm wrong it feels like it is trying to poke out, is my body rejecting it?
Hi there, More than the worry of rejection, if the Implant is not properly intradermal it may not be an effective contraception. You need to get it removed and replaced preferably on the opposite arm by a trained medical professional. Implant doesn't reject but can become ineffective if dislodged from its proper site. Implanon is one of the safest and reliable methods of long term reversible contraception and is effective for 3 years. Irregular spotting is its major Chat Doctor. Hope this helps. Regards.
