Hi I'm christal and I'm 16 I'm on the implant birth control and I had my period on the 7th and it last all the way to the 16. I started back bleeding again on the 24. It's been a week and two days since I've been bleeding after my period. Can someone tell me what maybe wrong. It's like a light red sometimes but be brownish kind of color.

That's called spotting, when on hormonal contraceptives for the first 6 months your body adjusts to the hormones. While adjusting you may experience spotting.
