> Hey all---seeing a trend here of Implanon being inserted before mom leaves the hospital.  This is becoming almost routine on some of our staff patients.  What do y’all know?? How does it affect milk supply?  Or not??? Would appreciate any information/research that anyone can share.  Appreciate it….

Currently thought not to affect supply, but it isn't licenced for use 
before 21 days postpartum so I doubt there's much (if any) data on that. 
<http://www.fsrh.org/pdfs/CEUGuidancePostnatal09.pdf> has the UK 
recommendations on postpartum contraceptive use, which includes a couple 
of references on Implanon and breastfeeding.
