Does bleeding when I am using the implant (Implanon ) mean my contraception is not working?
• Does using the injectable contraceptive affect the chances of me getting pregnant later? • Every so often when I take the contraceptive pill, I get bleeding when my periods not due. Its not heavy, but enough to drive me crazy. What causes this? • For the first 18 months I had no bleeding at all on the contraceptive implant (Implanon) it was great. But now for the past six months I have had continuous spotting. I have had a pap smear and an STI check, which were all normal, and a general gynaecology check to make sure nothing else is wrong. What can I do about the bleeding? • For the past 6 months, for a week before my period comes I have a really thick mostly black, slightly reddish discharge, and then my normal period starts. I don’t have any pain. From what have read in the magazines about STIs I know one of the symptoms of Chlamydia is abnormal bleeding, so I am really worried this might be the cause, but I don’t want to go to the doctor. • How can I keep condoms as safe as possib
