Medical Conditions - Implanon

Implanon implant is a small rod-shaped plastic that is inserted into the skin to avoid pregnancy. The rod works by releasing etonogestrel (quite similar to a natural hormone) in the body for around three years of time. The rod is generally inserted inside the skin of the upper arm by a doctor, and a bandage is placed for three to five days after insertion.
