I got the Nexplanon inserted and shortly after had to take antibiotics for a UTI. My doctor said no unprotected sex until I'm done with the antibiotics, but I want to make sure because I want the Nexplanon to be working right and in my system before having unprotected sex again.
How long do I have to wait to have unprotected sex after finishing antibiotics- have Nexplanon?

the general rule is to use back up the entire time you are on antibiotics and for seven days after you finish the last antibiotic pill.
