IMPLANON PREGNANCIES

I have been reading up on the old threads about pregnancies occurring on the implanon but want to start a new threat to see if its still as common.
I've had my implanon in for over a year now and have had seriously irregular periods with gaps of either 4 months or 2 weeks. I've been a little paranoid a few times as i know the side effects of the implanon are pretty similar to those of being pregnant so i just want to try and give myself piece of mind. I have recently just put on a lot of weight, around 1 stone and a half and my boobs have become swollen with it. My periods have gone and every morning I feel nauseous as though i'm about to throw up. I am also very fatigued and have a sudden craving for certain foods. I know that medical professionals say that pregnancies are highly unlikely, even impossible whilst on the implanon but after reading so many stories about women worried about pregnancies or who have actually become pregnant whilst on it then i need some advice and need to know if anyone else has experienced this.
Thank you xx Blush Blush

have heard that they sometimes do not show up as positive even when you are pregnant if you have the implanon? find that bizarre

I have a Nexplanon (different brand, same basic implant) and I've had side effects from it that have made me worried I was pregnant. My periods have disappeared completely, and I've had sore boobs, mood swings, fatigue, nausea, bloating, cramping and weight gain. It seems to come in cycles, but every time I worry and poas and get a bfn.

Its just so worrying, it really does make you paranoid the amount of side effects that cross over. I imagine i'm not pregnant but still need some piece of mind
