Client •Implant insertion less invasive •Less/no pain during insertion •Jadelle is preferred to Implanon – longer years of protection. •Free implant services accessible from mobile teams.

Client/provider insight
Marie Stopes International Marie Stopes International
Specific Programmatic Challenges • Generally low uptake of LARCs in Ghana due mostly to
misconceptions (e.g. implants cause infertility, fibroid etc)
• Voluntary FP services not included in NHIS benefits package, thus cost is still a barrier.
• High rate of removal of implants, especially in centers.
