Implant worries

Not sure if this is the right place I've had my implant for a few months and haven't really had any hormonal worries but the last 2 weeks ive been getting a lot of pregnancy symptoms and was wondering if anyone knows if you can get the side effects so long after getting the implant? If that makes sense x

3 months after I had gotten the implant I too had pregnancy symptoms. I knew these were side effects that could last up to 6 months after getting the implant, but because I was fine for the first 3 months and then I felt like flutters and kicks (I already have a daughter) I demanded a scan and all was fine. It took about a week to settle down and I've now had the implant for nearly 2 years and that's the only problem I've had

Have you done a pregnancy test to be absolutely sure?

I wasn't sure if that would be effected by the implant im going to be seeing the doctor soon about it because it's not calming down at all

No the implant won't affect a pregnancy test as it looks for a specific hormone called HCG which is not in implants or the pill.
