Is Doxycycline As Good As Implanon In Birth Control?

I have the birth control Implanon in my left arm, I've had it for 3 years and I just recently had it removed and replaced for the second time. I am going out of the country and am getting ready to take doxycycline, my question is will it make my birth control less effective? And do I have a chance of becoming pregnant?

Hence you haven't chances to become pregnant for this reason.

All the best
