Bar one or two very light ones I didn't have periods when I had the implant.

I know my relative had heavy bleeding and the doctor put her on the pill as well for a month

I'd book a GP appointment and have it checked out.

Also when you say heavy if you are soaking though a pad quickly, feel very faint or dizzy I'd call the out of hours doctor / similar tonight
