How to implant contraceptives for 3 years and 5 years, and what is the procedure?

1. Lie on your back on the bed with your non-dominant arm bent at the elbow. Rotate your arm out so that your wrist is always aligned with your ears or next to your head.
2. Determine the location where the implant will be inserted, in the inner side of the upper arm, about 8-10 centimeters away from the elbow (above the medial epicondyle of the humerus).
3. Mark two places : the first point marks the location where the implant will be inserted, and the second point, a few centimeters away from the first point, marks the direction towards the upper arm.
4. Clean the area to be implanted with an antiseptic.
5. Numb the area to be implanted, such as by using anesthesia.
6. Use one hand to pull the skin on the area where the implant will be inserted, using your thumb and index finger. Use the tip of the needle to pierce the skin at an angle of slightly less than 30 degrees.
7. Adjust the position of the device to implant the drug horizontally. While lifting the skin with the tip of the needle, you may feel slight resistance, but do not use excessive force.
8. Gently slide the device backwards while pressing it.

• Lie on your back on the examination bed with your non-dominant arm bent at the elbow and rotated out so that your wrist is always in line with your ear or next to your head.
• The doctor will implant 2 Jadell contraceptive sticks, which will be inserted under the skin on the inside of the upper arm. If you are right-handed, the sticks will be inserted in your left arm, and if you are left-handed, the sticks will be inserted in your right arm.
• Clean the area with an antiseptic.
• Inject local anesthesia to prevent pain, as inserting the device for the contraceptive may cause slight discomfort, or in some cases, a small incision may be required.
• The doctor will insert the contraceptive rods under the skin one by one with a Trocar needle until both rods are completely inserted in a V-shape facing the armpit.
• Cover the area with a bandage or wound dressing.

The bandage can be removed after the wound has healed, typically 3-5 days after the implantation of the medicine stick. Bruising and swelling can occur for 2-3 days after implantation, but these symptoms will not interfere with normal activities.

Sometimes, there may be an infection at the site where the medicine stick is implanted, or temporary pain or itching. If you have any concerns after implanting contraceptives, you can ask your doctor.
