Pregnancy is an extremely remote possibility.
Detailed Answer:
Hi,
Welcome to Ask A Doctor.
I am Dr Ramadevi Wani. I will be answering your concerns today.
Nexplanon is an extremely effective contraceptive method. Its duration of action is for three years.
Of 2000 people using Nexplanon for a year only one may conceive. It is that effective.
However except for abstinence no contraceptive method is 100% effective. Therefore if you have symptoms of pregnancy get a pregnancy test done.
Best wishes.
