This appointment is for inserting a prescribed Nexplanon implant or removing an existing implant without immediate replacement. Nexplanon is a contraceptive implant placed beneath the skin of the upper arm.
The clinician reviews relevant medical information and explains the procedure and aftercare. For removal, information about the existing implant and any concerns at its location help determine the appropriate next step.
Choose this appointment if you have a prescribed Nexplanon device and an established plan for insertion, or if you want an existing implant removed without a new implant being inserted during the same visit.
If you need help choosing contraception or obtaining a prescription, book a Contraception Consultation first. For removal and immediate replacement, choose the separate replacement appointment.
This appointment combines removal of an existing Nexplanon implant with insertion of a new prescribed implant during the same visit, when appropriate.
The clinician reviews the current implant, the replacement plan, relevant medications and any concerns about the existing insertion site. Booking a replacement appointment does not guarantee that both steps can be completed if further assessment is required.
Choose this appointment when you already have a replacement plan and a new prescribed Nexplanon implant to bring to the visit.
If you are considering a different contraceptive method, need a prescription or want to discuss whether to continue with an implant, book a Contraception Consultation first.
This appointment is for removal of an existing intrauterine device, or IUD, without insertion of a new IUD during the same visit.
The clinician reviews your removal request, relevant symptoms or concerns, and information about the existing device. If removal cannot be completed as planned, further assessment or referral may be needed.
Choose this appointment when you want your current IUD removed without immediate replacement.
If you want a new IUD inserted during the same visit, choose IUD Insertion or Replacement instead. If you want ongoing contraception and have not selected another method, book a Contraception Consultation before removal.
This appointment is for insertion of a prescribed IUD, with removal of an existing IUD during the same visit when applicable and clinically appropriate.
An IUD is placed inside the uterus. Before insertion, the clinician reviews the prescribed device, relevant health information, current contraception and previous procedures to confirm whether the planned insertion can proceed.
Choose this appointment when you have your prescribed IUD and an established insertion or replacement plan.
If you need help choosing a method or obtaining a prescription, start with a Contraception Consultation. If you already have a prescription but have not obtained the device, arrange to obtain it before insertion and contact the clinic if you need help confirming the booking requirements.
