An effective long-acting, reversible contraceptive.<\/strong><\/p>\n\n\n\n

The contraceptive implant is a small, plastic rod (or sometimes 2 rods) that is put into the upper arm, preventing pregnancy for 3 to 5 years.<\/p>\n\n\n\n

It’s a long-term method of contraception. These methods all have the advantage that, once in place, you don\u2019t need to think about them until they need replacing and none of them interrupt sex. <\/p>\n\n\n\n

Long-term methods have also been shown to be 20 times more effective than short-term contraceptive methods such as the pill.<\/p>\n<\/div>\n\n\n\n

Effectiveness<\/h5>\n\n\n\n

Over 99%. If one hundred women used the implant for a year, then 99 women would not fall pregnant during that time.<\/p>\n\n\n\n

Availability<\/h5>\n\n\n\n

Implants are available from all of our clinics<\/a> and outreach teams.<\/p>\n\n\n\n
