Wanting some advice.

1 Reply

Hi I'm new here, in July of this year I had my contreceptive implant removed after having 2 over the space of just under 5 years.

Since having it taken out I have had irregular periods, spotting for 3-4 days leading up to my period, then my full blown period arrives.

I am currently trying for a baby with my partner, no luck since having the implanon taken out.

I'm just wanting some advice wether this problem with my periods is normal after stopping birth control ?
