Not receiving pre-insertion counseling, having a history of abortion, contraceptive side effects, and not receiving an appointment for a follow-up visit at the time of insertion were predictors of early discontinuation of etonogestrel sub-dermal implant. Thus, healthcare professionals should give an appointment for a follow-up visit at the time of insertion and provide detailed counseling for all women, not only for those who had had an abortion and contraceptive side effects.
