The Nexplanon® implant is a safe, highly effective birth control option offered right here at New England Women's Healthcare. During a quick, in-office procedure, your OB/GYN places a small, flexible implant just under the skin of your upper arm. It releases a low, steady dose of progestin to prevent ovulation, thicken cervical mucus, and thin the uterine lining – providing over 99% effective pregnancy prevention for up to three years. It’s a simple, reliable option for long-term contraception with peace of mind built in.
