Does the nexplanon lose efficacy after 3 years? Or does it protect for up to 5?

My primary doctor told me it would last for 5, but I'm worry she may be misleading me.

Yeah nah.
It protects for three. Then get it changed.
The simple advice of "follow the instructions" comes into play.

considering literally google can tell you it's 3, then yeah, probably worth a report

Yes, it is supposed to be removed at the end of three years.
