Hi all!

Just wondering if anyone’s got any experience with having Nexplanon and also taking SSRIs (specifically Citalopram)? I can’t find any literature stating they interact, perhaps someone here can link me to studies on nexplanon and SSRIs?

Hi Kela!

Nexplanon and Citalopram do not have any interactions on paper; I also asked a family member who worked in OBGYN for a decade to confirm!

Although I do not have personal experience with the interactions between Nexplanon and Citalopram, I did find some threads (Reddit and Quora) from people who have that experience that you may find helpful!

Hopefully someone with personal anecdotes can chime in on this thread soon, though!

Thankyou Caitlin!

Debating going back onto nexplanon after a few years break, only this time as in a LTR, don’t want to use condoms …would nexplanon plus a diaphragm work as a buddying up contraception system?

Are spermacides safe (as in not from an effective pov, but like genuinely safe for cervix use)? In the UK I can’t really say we hear much about diaphragms and spermacides! It seems to be something of an old fashioned method.

So if anyone has any diaphragm experiences from the NHS I’d love to hear them!
