Good morning, can the Implanon NXT contraceptive implant be felt unevenly under the skin? In some places I feel it more and in others less. I still have a bruise in this place, because the implant was put on 3 weeks ago.

Both ends of the implant should be felt under the skin, from the information you give it appears that it was put on correctly and should work properly. In rare cases, the implant may bend or break, but studies show that this does not affect the concentration of hormones released into the blood. Moving the implant requires the intervention of medical professional personnel in the facility where it was placed. The implantation site should be observed, as improper placement of the preparation or the occurrence of inflammation may result in its expulsion and weaken the contraceptive effectiveness of the product.

And is the effectiveness preserved? I feel that he is in his place and has not moved.

The subcutaneous implant is a small, soft, flexible, plastic rod 4 cm long and 2 mm in diameter, it should be felt under the skin. The presence of a bruise may interfere with the assessment of its placement - if you have doubts about whether the implant is placed correctly, you should see the doctor who placed it.
