Are Patch Or Implanon Recommended For Birth Control Of 20 Year Old?

I'm 20 years old, and am considering the patch or Implanon because I'm not great about remembering to take pills but the patch has been linked to young female deaths associated with patch-related blood clots. That makes me nervous. What do you recommend? I have a very sensitive body and the ring gave me yeast infections.

Implanon will be a better option because complications are very low and efficacy is good.
