A teenager requests the most effective irreversible form of contraception. Which method of contraception will the provider recommend?

Question

Quizplus · Accepted Answer

The etonogestrel subdermal implant is a long-acting, reversible contraceptive method, not irreversible. However, among the options provided, it is the most effective in preventing pregnancy. The question seems to have a mistake in asking for an "irreversible" method, as none of the options listed are irreversible forms of contraception like surgical sterilization. The etonogestrel implant, under the skin, provides up to three years of continuous pregnancy prevention, making it the most effective option listed.
