One of the most important characteristics of the NORPLANT SYSTEM is that it is totally reversible. The contraceptive affect ceases immediately after the capsules are removed. Return to previous level of fertility is usually prompt after the NORPLANT SYSTEM is removed. In one study, 40% of women wanting to conceive did so within three months of removal, 63% conceived within six months of removal, 76% conceived by one year, and the 24-month rate was 90%.
