Is It Safe To Delay The Removal Of Implanon Implant?
Yes I had my Implanon in for the entire three years. The due date for it to come out was 1/12/2012. I made my appointment, but the cant take it out until 2/10/2012. Is that safe? Also I found 2mths ago a smooth bald patch on the front edge of my head plus bad headaches. What can I do? Thanks so much, Swanetta'

Hello,
Delaying Implanon removal for a few days will not cause major issues. However, you will need to use an alternate form of contraception like condoms during this period.
Hope I have answered your query. Let me know if I can assist you further.
