Implanon since March 3rd, long period after then nothing until spotting now for 3 days (june2015)

Hi there

I will mention some side effects of Implanon below -

• pain, numbness, or tingling where the implant was inserted;
• minor bleeding or scarring where the implant was inserted;
• menstrual cramps, changes in your menstrual periods;
• mild headache, dizziness, mood changes;
• vaginal itching or discharge;
• breast pain;
• acne;

The most common side effect of IMPLANON (etonogestrel implant) is a change in your normal menstrual bleeding pattern. In studies, about one out of ten women stopped using the implant because of an unfavorable change in their bleeding pattern. You may experience longer or shorter bleeding during your periods or have no bleeding at all. The time between periods may vary, and in between periods you may also have spotting.

Call your doctor at once if you have any of these serious side effects:

• warmth, redness, swelling, or oozing where the implant was inserted;
• sudden numbness or weakness, especially on one side of the body;
• severe pain or cramping in your pelvic area (may be only on one side);
• sudden severe headache, confusion, pain behind the eyes, problems with vision, speech, or balance;
• sudden cough, wheezing, rapid breathing, coughing up blood;
• pain, swelling, warmth, or redness in one or both legs;
• chest pain or heavy feeling, pain spreading to the arm or shoulder, nausea, sweating, general ill feeling;
• a breast lump;
• swelling in your hands, ankles, or feet;
• jaundice (yellowing of the skin or eyes);
• symptoms of depression (sleep problems, weakness, tired feeling, mood changes); or
• dangerously high blood pressure (severe headache, blurred vision, buzzing in your ears, anxiety, confusion, chest pain, shortness of breath, uneven heartbeats, seizure).

If you experience any of the above serious side effects - please revert back to your doctor. Good luck
