Is Pregnancy Possible While On Nexplanon?

Posted on Sat, 28 Nov 2015

Question: My girlfriend has had nexplanon inserted for about 7 months. And i always use with drawal but last night im worried i pulled out a little too late and some got in my girl friend. Im sorry for being so blunt but i didnt know how else to explain it. And the last thing we want is any accidents. Thats why we had her get on nexplanon because we were told it was the most affective bieth control. And i tend to worry over the littlest things, i just need to know if we are for sure safe from pregnancy and do not need the plan B pill. If you could reply asap i would appreciate it

Brief Answer:
No chance of pregnancy

Detailed Answer:
Hi dear, I have gone through your question and understand your concerns.
Nexplanon is an effective birth control method with a extremely low failure rate.
You need not worry if there was ejaculation inside the vagina, as there are rarest, or almost nil chances of pregnancy.
Failure rate of nexplanon is 0.05% , which means almost no chance of failure.
Hope you found the answer helpful.
Wishing you good health.
