Posted on Fri, 19 Feb 2016

Question: I removed my implanon and started the combination pill within 3 hours. How long until I am not at risk of getting pregnant?

Answered by Dr. Richa Agarwal (26 minutes later)

Brief Answer:
You may get pregnant.

Detailed Answer:
Hello dear,
Thanks for trusting hcm about your health care.
I have gone through your history and understand your concerns.
Usually fertility return immediately after removing implanon and birth control pills take one week to become effective.
So you should avoid unprotected sex for one week.
Hope found useful, feel free to discuss more information.
Good luck.
