Nexplanon Use in Women Primarily Choosing a Combined Oral Contraceptive: a Multicenter Trial

1. Women who desire a COC for contraception will be willing to initiate and continue an ENG implant as a continuous back-up method. 2. Women using a COC concomitantly with ENG implant will have low rates (<5%) of ENG discontinuation for bleeding complaints. 3. A high percentage of women in the study will still be using the ENG implant after 52 weeks (1 year).
