Basically I’m a little bit worried about something. I’m not currently actively trying to get pregnant I’m just the sort of person that if it happens it happens type of thing but I did have the contraceptive implant in my arm but I had it taken out last week as it wasn’t agreeing with me at all. Basically I went to the toilet last night and when I wiped I saw something that got me a little bit worried. I’ve attached a picture of it below. My mum said that it could just be some mucus from my vagina but it looks very concerning and sort of like an embryo and I have never ever had that sort of mucus before. The thing is the last time I had sex was about 3 weeks ago when I still had my Implant in my arm and me and my partner used condoms as I was bleeding due to the implant and he’s a bit squeamish when it comes to blood lol. But the last time I had unprotected sex with my partner was at the start of March (we live long distance hence why the big gap between the last times we have slept together) Anyway I was just wondering if anyone has any idea what this could be is it a miscarriage maybe? Maybe implantation? But I don’t know how I could have got pregnant because I was very well protected and surly if it was a miscarriage from back in March it would be bigger and there’s not way it would be implantation from March right cuz that’s too long for it to be that right?? I’ve also been experiencing a lot of brownish yellowy sticky discharge as well before and after I found that thing in the picture which at first I wasn’t too worried about as I was getting a lot of brown discharge when I had the implant in and so thought it was just normal after having it taken out. I should also state shorty after I got of the toilet I had a little bit of cramping but not anything too serious. I’ve taken a pregnancy test and it came back negative but I know they aren’t always 100% and so I’m still a little bit worried . Please can someone help me before I go to the doctors because I actually hate the doctors so much and I’m quite embarrassed to go if I’m honest. Thank you guys hope life is treating you all well! Xx

Do you know when you are due your period? I tend to get similar on the run up to my period. Looks like a small clot mixed in with the mucus and I wouldn't worry. I have never experienced miscarriage thankfully but from what I hear it's generally heavier bleeding like a period. I wouldn't worry but If you are, take a pregnancy test. Even if it was a loss, you most likely will still have a high level of hcg that will be picked up.

No I have no idea when my next period is as when I was on the implant I bled for the whole six months that I had it in therefore I honestly couldn’t keep track of my period at all. I had the implant taken out last week and I was still bleeding for a few days after having it out but then it was normal no bleeding just some normal discharge and then the discharge started to then into stringy brownish red coloured and then that thing came out of me lol and after I’ve been having the same stringy discharge as before plus some yellowish. I have had a miscarriage before but I was testing negative on the pregnancy tests before that so I didn’t actually know I was pregnant it was only when I went to the doctor about my miscarriage and just asking what it was that I was experiencing at that time was when they told me it was a miscarriage, and I took a test today and it came back negative again so I don’t really trust them if I’m honest because of my past experience. I think I will just go to the doctor anyway to just check and make sure everything is ok , but thank you so much for the help! Xx

@ParysGibb0 that's totally fair, everyone is different. Going to your gp is a good shout especially as this is a new occurance for you always better being on the sage side. Hope everything goes OK with the docs 🤞

Have you had any kind of cramping pains? Previous miscarriages for me I've had cramping discomfort. It's certainly unusual, thing is with miscarriage it could have only got so far and stopped developing and you can miscarry later on. If you're worried I'd go to your GP and try and get a referral to early pregnancy unit where they can do a scan, usually internal to check everything has passed ok, just incase it was. I'm sure they will refer you.

I had some cramping and discomfort after but it didn’t last very long and wasn’t too uncomfortable, I’ve had a little bit of cramps today but again nothing too painful or uncomfortable. I’m definitely going to go to my gp as this is nothing I’ve experienced before so I am obviously a little bit worried. Thank you for your help! Xx

Have not been to the doctors yet as I just can’t get an appointment that suits the hours that I work but I’m going to keep trying. I myself feel oki, have not experienced anything unusual only really been experiencing some pretty bad headaches but that’s probs just my period letting me know it’s gonna show itself soon lol
