It probably can if you bent it hard enough but even if you did manage to bend it, it would still work (according to my doctor anyway). This is because the hormones are not actually concealed in the little tube as though it's a bottle, but they're kind of soaked or impregnanted into the actual tube.

My implanon implant is sore. I have only very recently had it implanted but the end of the plastic tube which was the end last to enter my skin seems to protrude. It is not sticking out of the skin but the skin is bulging over it. This means it is sore when I flex my arm or touch the bulge. I don't know if it is normal or not and I am hoping that it will calm down in a few days. In the mean time I am not doing any exercises that require the flexing of biceps and I whince a lot.
