    I hope you are okay, you sound very stressed out. I don't know a lot about the Implanon, but I would recommend that you went back to your Dr and discussed your options, and maybe have it removed if it doesn't settle down.

    okay well good news, i had some very light spotting this morning and pretty much did a dance when i saw it, haha. i'm still going to the doctors to request to have it taken out and also have a test. but definitely not as worried as yesterday! the implanon has been so bad for me, i thought it was pretty much the best thing i could get since i'm horrible at remembering to take anything. but i've gained about 5kg since i had it in (possibly a good thing though as i was underweight if anything), am constantly really depressed and always crying over anything, and also have no sex drive whatsoever. so i guess it has to go! what's an iud?? can anybody suggest other contraceptives aside from the pill. alternatively, which pill do you find is best? i'll be discussing it with my doctor tomorrow but just wondering from personal experience what people find is working out for them. thanks everybody!!

    by the way, i read up a bit on implanon pregnancies and apparently it only really happens if the rod wasn't put in correctly. i'm fairly sure mine is fine as it's towards the surface and the person who inserted it would have done many before mine. i sometimes bend it in my arm though, do you think this could affect it? otherwise if the test comes back positve i am that unlucky 1% or something. fingers crossed but i'm sure it will be okay.
