What Causes Itching Around The Implanon Site?
The nexplanon I have is constantly itchy, I ve had it for roughly 4 months, but have had implanon before that for about 6 years. The implanon wasn t this bad and when I ( I know I m not supposed to) scratch around it a pus filled lump forms over the middle of the implanon site. What is it and should I worry!

Hello!
Implanon can commonly associated with a fewer side effects like pain, irritation, bruising, numbness, tingling, infection, scareing at the implant site, etc. This can result in itching. Pus filled lumps may indicate the presence of an inferion. Please do consider visiting your gynecologist and a quick examination to know if you have to get it removed to prevent the spread of infection. Hope this helps.
