Cara - as we've mentioned several times in live chat, as soon as you stop ANY form of birth control (even missing a single pill) you are at a highER risk of falling pregnant than what you were when you were on that birth control - that doesn't mean you're going to fall pregnant straight away - however, given that you WANT to fall pregnant, i wouldn't consider it a "risk" anyway. it's just a simple statement that you are more likely to fall pregnant now than you were a month ago. perhaps your nurse is trying to convey that to you - that you are more likely to fall pregnant now than you were whilst you had the implanon in - i don't consider that high risk - just slightly more chance than if you were still using birth control

MORE LIKELY isn't a guarantee. falling pregnant within a couple of months with your first pregnancy has no bearing on your chances of falling pregnant within a couple of months this time around. each attempt is different. There are multitudes of women on BB at the moment that are trying to conceive - many of them were pregnant within a few months first time around, and second or third time, they've gone over a year and are having to consult with fertility specialists now for assistance. each attempt is different so you need to stop comparing this time to your first time. it will happen when the time is right

as has been mentioned to you in live chat - you need to accept that the implanon is a chemical manipulation of your hormones. there is NO GUARANTEE that it will leave your system immediately. you may find that you don't return to a "normal" cycle for quite some time - and it may be very wise for you to look at some of the "charting your cycle" threads on BB, or visit fertility friend and learn about your cycle. learn about the changes that occur from when you have your period (AF) through ovulation, to the end of your cycle. everyone is different, so as much as the general norm is to ovulate sometime around CD14 (14 days from beginning of AF), there is no guarantee this will happen for YOU. you need to learn how YOUR body works, and none of us can tell you how that is going to happen. you also can't tell for a couple of cycles after your implonon is removed as your body is still "recovering" from that hormonal manipulation. nothing says you won't get pregnant - but also nothing says you will.

the timing of ovulation is the key in knowing when your best chances of conceiving are - and you need to do some research for yourself to identify the changes that happen in your own body - if you have sex with your partner too early or too late, there is minimal to no chance of a pregnancy occuring. take some time to do some research and understand your body. for what it's worth - a medical professional is highly unlikely to consider you to be having trouble conceiving a child until you have had 12 complete cycles of attempting to conceive. given that you've had only a withdrawal bleed at this stage, i doubt that this first period of time would even be considered as it may not be an ovulatory cycle. i would hazard a guess that they would count the start of your next AF as the start of your first "cycle" off implanon.

have a look around BB - there are many threads on trying to conceive that may be a valuable resource to you. sometimes you need to just look a little deeper to find the answers to the questions you want answered - you'll get more info on BB than you could ever use - from a broader variety of people then you'd find in any one place - so make use of what is here!
