Hi everybody,
I've had the Implanon implant in my left arm for about two years now and I've got around another 6 months before I need to get it changed. When I first got it, it was my first experience with birth control so I bled for a few weeks while my body adjusted but then I stopped having periods and it was fine. I didn't bleed for almost a year and a half and I was with the same guy the whole time, also using condoms. Now I have a new boyfriend and putting it politely, he's substantially bigger than my ex. We've been together for a year now and never had any problems with me bleeding but for the past two months, I've been getting very heavy periods for around a week and a half then getting a break of two days or so and then another periods. I asked my doctor and she said it was because all the lining in my uterus was finally coming out of my body but it seems lately that I'm only bleeding after sex? Usually the morning after. I was just wondering if anyone else had problems with this? I'm going to see my doctor again soon but I just wanted some peace of mind for the time being.
Thank you, guys!
Hi i'm 21 years old n my period is going on for more than 2 weeks?is it normal?
im going through the same thing right now and im going to make an appointment to see a physician...its very irritating its not heavy at all but it lasts for days..id rather it be really heavy for one day then go away. good luck i hope we can get our problems fixed. i wonder too if its how or how often were having the sex that day that could be contributing to the bleeding? which would suck because my boyfriend and i have a great sex life :( i noticed also that you posted this 4 months ago...any answers to the problem or suggestions?
I had the Implanon (Nexplanon) For a couple months. I was bleeding every single day I had it. It's normal, but it's annoying. If the bleeding bothers you, just get it taken out, and the problem's solved. That's what I did.
