The contraceptive implant is ‘injected’ into the skin or the inner upper arm by a trained nurse or doctor and then lasts for 3 years. It has the advantages of minimal known health risks and is very reliable. The disadvantage is that irregular bleeding is common to begin with, on average for about 3 months, but after that the majority of women have no periods at all or very occasional light bleeding only. Rarely hormonal side effects such as breast tenderness or mood swings can occur. Very rarely women may have side effects in the arm where the implant is or it may be difficult for a doctor or nurse to remove it when needed.
