Hi. I am 29 years old, no children and was on the Implanon implant for 3 years. It has since expired in April and I have been having my period several times a month. While on the Implanon my period was very irregular but that was expected. I am sexually active with 1 partner and protection is not always used. Most recently, I have had only a couple of days before starting to bleed again. Before that, I had about a week in between bleeding. I have not taken any pregnancy tests.
This is starting to become extremely frustrating and I'm just looking for some answers!
