What past patients say...
Dr Smith has been fitting contraceptive devices for over 15 years, and has received many compliments, below are just a few.
Dr Smith has been amazing, caring and fully supportive as I navigated from peri-menopause to menopause over the last few years. With her guidance I now have an HRT protocol which allows me to live life well, has given me back my brain back and I feel like a whole person again.
If you are looking for a doctor who listens, problem solves with you, doesn’t diminish your personal experience, has deep expertise and demonstrates compassion and empathy in abundance that all describes Dr Smith.
I had an IUD fitted with Dr Smith and whilst it was a little uncomfortable, it was a lot better than I’d been anticipating! She was excellent as was her assistant and I felt very reassured whilst having the procedure done.
Frequently asked questions
Below are some frequently asked questions about the Nexplanon Implant
Does Nexplanon protect against sexually transmitted infections (STIs)?
No, Nexplanon provides contraception but does not protect against STIs. Additional precautions may be needed.
Can Nexplanon affect menstrual cycles?
Irregular bleeding or changes in menstrual patterns are common but tend to improve over time.
Is Nexplanon reversible?
Yes, fertility typically returns promptly after Nexplanon removal.
How long does Nexplanon provide contraception?
Nexplanon is effective for up to three years, after which it should be removed or replaced.
How does Nexplanon work?
Nexplanon releases a hormone called etonogestrel, preventing ovulation and thickening cervical mucus to hinder sperm movement.
Is it painful to get an implant inserted?
Most people just feel a little pinch or slight sting when they get the numbing injection. You shouldn’t be able to feel the implant being inserted. Your arm may ache a little where the implant was inserted after the numbing wears off, but it goes away quickly. You may have a bit of tenderness or swelling around the implant for a few days and it may look bruised for a week or two.
Keeping the area dry for 24 hours is important afterwards. You should be able to feel both ends of the rod under your skin. If this changes at any time, contact us for a consultation.
How does it feel to get the Nexplanon implant removed?
Implant removal only takes a few minutes, but the process is a little longer than getting it put in.
Just like with the insertion, you will receive an injection to numb a small area of your arm. Then a small cut is made to remove the implant. You usually just feel a little pinch or stinging when you get the numbing injection. After that, it shouldn’t hurt when the Dr makes the incision to take the implant out.
