What Are The Side Effects Of Implanon Implant?
Hi, I have been on the implanon implant for about 3 months now, a few weeks after I started getting pains in my tight arm & hand. It's almost like a tingly feeling. I didn't think anything of it because I got the implant on my left arm and in feeling the pains in my left. But I'm a bit worried now. Could you please help me?

Hello,
Pain following Implanon implantation is not expected. The persisting pain is concerning for possible misplacement or infection at the insertion rate.
Please follow up with your doctor to exclude these possibilities.
