Does Nexplanon Cause Foul Smelling Vaginal Discharge?
Hi I just recently had the nexplanon inserted it s been 8 days and I noticed a very strong odor two days ago and I ve never smelled it before. Also, I have a runny discharge that is light pink. Since the pink discharge started I noticed that the odor was from the discharge. I just had all my tests completed and they were all good. Does the implant have this side effect?
Hello and Welcome to ‘Ask A Doctor’ service. I have reviewed your query and here is my advice.
Nexplanon is meant for contraception that is prevention of pregnancy.It may cause initial bleeding but I don't think it will cause strong odor. It could be due to genital infection.
Hope I have answered your query. Let me know if I can assist you further.
