A presterilized, packaged, subcutaneous contraception kit including a simple, disposable cutter device (1) which makes precise, repeatable less than 5 mm incisions in the skin which is capable of being used by nonskilled personnel. The contraceptive steroid delivery systems are preloaded in a disposable flexible plastic carrier (30) which is used to blunt disect under the skin where the capsules (52) are deposited by the operation of drawing the carrier (30) back over a rod (42) which is held relatively stationary. The carrier (30) stops automatically when one capsule has been deposited and must be triggered in order to deposit the next capsule.
