hey, i’ve been using implanon for a while but now i’m feeling the need of having a baby… i know my dh doesn’t want to yet because he says we’re too young and we has plans for me before having kids but my biological clock’s ticking and i can’t help it…. so i’m considering getting pregnant by surprise, like if it was a failure of implanon…. what are my options? is it possible to “trick” the device in some way? or what can i do to get pregnant without my husband knowing? i know he’d be a good father, it’s only that he’s afraid of it….

Implanon or Nexplanon is a device that works by releasing hormones in order to stop ovulation from occurring. Implanon can be removed without further side effects and the woman can resume ovulation as soon as after a few weeks, so most women are able to become pregnant quickly after its removal, although you may need a few cycles before your menstrual cycles are regular again.
The failure rate of the contraceptive implant is 0.05%, so the chances for you to get pregnant while on Implanon are considerably low. Aside from that, I wouldn’t recommend that you make the decision without your husband knowing, as it would affect you as a couple and affect your overall state during pregnancy, which is highly unadvisable.
If you want to get pregnant, talk with your husband about it in order to reach a consensus about your parenting ideas and expectations.
I hope this helps,
Best
