Does calendula affect the functioning of the contraceptive implant?

To @Aneta:

According to the package leaflet:

"Fracture or bending of the subcutaneous implant in the patient's arm should not affect its function."

If you suspect a fracture of the implant, I encourage you to monitor its position. In case you stop feeling it, I encourage you to consult your doctor.

And a possible fracture will affect its effectiveness ? When I touch it, I sense that it is in place

To @Aneta:

Any fracture or bending of the implant will be felt under the skin. It cannot be ruled out that a strong blow caused the implant to break.

Touch the area next to the implant and try to feel its presence. We have written about what to do when it is not possible to feel the implant in our opinions:

Hello, I have a contraceptive implant and yesterday I hit the corner of the wall near the implant site, today I got a bruise, could it have damaged the contraceptive implant? I'm attaching a photo, in fact this bruise is darker

Thank you very much for your reply.

To @Aneta: as I have already written, there is no information about such an action. It doesn't seem likely that eating calendula flakes could have any effect. Such an interaction is not described.

Aneta  (Anonymous, 217.96.231.) 1 year ago

And can calendula intake have an effect?

Calendula flakes decorating a meal should not affect the contraceptive implant. Information about such an interaction is not available.
