Nexplanon

Unread post by OliveFiend »

I've had my Nexplanon for almost 3 years and get it changed out soon (before the first one hits the 3 year mark). My question is will the new one be effective right then or is it like the first one where I need to wait a week?

As long as you have the new one inserted before that 3 year mark, it should be effective right away.
