Norplant has been discontinued in the U.S. There were many negative side effects and by 1996 50,000 women had filed lawsuits against Wyeth, the maker.
The most common side effects were weight gain, nervousness, anxiety, nausea, vomiting, mastalgia, dizziness, dermatitis/rash, hirsutism, scalp-hair loss, headache, depression, and acne.

Im a nurse and my opinion is: if it releases hormones I think you should defanintly stop and think if there may be any ramifications in this to the surounding tissue/skin. Also I think there would be a BIG risk for infection and pain/discomfort associated. Im not a big fan of the novaring or iud (with hormones) and I would have to put this is that catagory.. i would stear away...

I have the Mirena IUD. It's great, lasts for 5 years. It is inserted and removed (when you are ready) right in the OB office. You can keep it for 5 years or have it taken out earlier and are able to get pregnant the next cycle after it's removed.
