i have been on the implant for 2 years since giving birth, I had long heavy bleeding at the start but nothing for almost the whole 2 years no periods no spotting or cramping etc.

I have had cramping for almost a week now with brown discharge / bleeding for 3 days, the cramping is very severe.

can anyone help with why this may be happening and has anyone had the same or similar experience

Thankyou :)

I’ve had the contraceptive implant for a year now. The last few months I’ve had episodes of period symptoms, severe mood swings, irritability, headaches and a brown discharge. This is happening 3 or 4 times a month for a few days at a time. Also my sex drive is literally zero 😞. Has anyone experienced anything similar or offer any advice please? I’m at my wits end!

I’m experiencing exactly the same!!!
I’ve had the implant 12 months now and had a few bleeds at the start. But the past few months I’ve had lots of episodes of a brown/ pink discharge lasting a few days at a time. With period symptom’s, cramps, moodiness and headaches. It’s happening a few times each months for a few days at a time.
I’m fed up!
