.. Objective: To assess the frequency of adverse effects caused by implantation of single-rod Etonogestrel implant (Implanon) in females seeking birth spacing after delivery of previous pregnancy. Study Design: Descriptive case series. Setting: Unit V, Department of Obstetrics & Gynecology, and Lady Aitcheson Hospital Lahore. Period: One year from 01/04/2015 to 31/03/2016. Materials & methods: A total of 130 women fulfilling our selection criteria were selected. The ENG implant is a single (coaxial) rod made up of an ethylene vinyl acetate (EVA) copolymer core (40% EVA) containing 68mg ENG, surrounded by a 60mm skin of EVA copolymer (100% EVA). The implant was inserted during days 1 to 5 of spontaneous menses and left in place and adverse effects (abnormal vaginal bleeding or pregnancy) was measured (as per operational definition) for a period of 3 months. All this information was recorded in proforma (attached). Data was entered and analyzed in SPSS version 17.0. Results: The mean age of females was 29.08 ± 4.027 years with minimum and maximum age of 20 and 40 years. Adverse events were seen in 36(27.7%) of the females while other 94(72.3%) did not have any adverse effect of implantation of single-rod Etonogestrel implant (Implanon) in females seeking birth spacing after delivery of previous pregnancy. Abnormal vaginal bleeding was reported by 19(14.6%) and pregnancy was occurred in 17(13.1%) of the females. Conclusion: According to the findings of this study we found less adverse effects like abnormal vaginal bleeding in 19(14.6%) females and pregnancy was occurred in 17(13.1%) of the females. Hence we conclude Implanon is an effective mode of contraception in females seeking birth spacing and can be adopted in females seeking family planning.
