Hiya, 2 months ago I came off the arm implant after having it for 3 years. 1 month later my period came and lasted about 5 days. This month my period also came on time but it wasn't a heavy full on period. It lasted for about 4 days then stopped for 1 day then i had two days of light red spotting followed by diarrhoea (sorry to be crude) stomach cramps, backache and boob ache which is still ongoing despite finishing my period last saturday which is now a week ago. The last time i had unprotected sex was about 4 days prior to my period starting so it doesn't medically mean i am pregnant? I tried a pregnancy test but it is negative. Is this side affects of taking the implant out and do side affects last this long? I am freaking out as i cannot even get to my dr because of covid? Would love to know if anyone else has been through this after implant removal?

I didn't have the implant but for a few months after coming off my pill I'd have normal periods then others weird ones were I'd have nearly every pregnancy symptom imaginable it could most likely be your hormones/body getting back to normal after coming off contraception which is normal and can last a couple months up to a year so I've heard, everyone's different

I had the implant for 4 years, I took the 2nd out to try my 4th. My periods was erratic for 3 months and fell pregnant on the 4 month ttc. I also had the implant before trying for my 3rd and the same happened then, erratic for about 6 months

Awwww thank you for letting me know. I have started on time both months but since I finished last week, the spotting started for 2 days and then these crazy symptons. Today I have backache, boobs sore and new sympton headache. Cannot wait to get back to normal. Thank you :)

I had my implant in September and have had a wholeeee host of 'symptoms' that I never had before! I've had sore boobs, sore nipples, Constipation, diarrhoea, spotting, heavy periods, light periods, short periods, long cycles, short cycles. All symptoms are different every single month.

I think it's common for some people after stopping contraception. I never had any of this when I stopped the pill! Sometimes it takes a while for your body to regulate again
