Is Immediate Conceiving Safe Post Removal Of Nexplanon?

Hi, I currently have the Nexplanon implant but I am considering removing it. How long after removal will it be safe for me to conceive? I know that it says I will be able to conceive after 7 days or so, but will there be any hormones still in my system that can be harmful to the embryo or delay me to conceive?

General & Family Physician 's  Response
HI,
Thanks for asking. I understand your concern.
Nexplanon is a long acting hormonal contraceptive.. having 99% efficacy of contraception.
Return of fertility is within 7-14 days of removal.
So you can plan safely for conception after first menstruation following removal of Nexplanon.
Thanks.
