Lost implant!

Hi, I went to the drs after a positive pregnancy test.. I have the implant! We think the test was a false positive but… they could not find the implant!! Waiting to hear back from a referral to a clinic that deal with difficult implants but I’m very scared! Has anyone had this before and been ok?

What DPO am I??

I had spotting on 9/1/24. I thought that meant I ovulated early. This morning I had spotting and it stopped. Should I calculate ovulation from 9/1/24 when I spotted or what the app said. I'm not sure how many DPO I am. If it's from the day I saw spotting I'm 12 DPO. but if it's from the date the app predicted, I'm only 10 DPO. I've been tracking my cycles on this app consistently for 3 years now so in figured it would be accurate. No more bleeding since 4 am this morning. I even tried to feel my cervix and no blood on my finger. Not sure if it's possible implantation bleeding or if I should expect AF... Please advise

I'm confused

Hi everyone. So I've been on nexplanon since August 10 and I have either had little to no bleeding. So I get my pms symptoms like bloating and cramps right around when I'm supposed to be normally but no bleeding. I think I've spotted maybe one week or so and that's it. My doctor says its normal to have irregular bleeding but I'm still confused. Also before I got this implant I've never had one before. Are these things normal? And does anyone have advice to share with me? I'd really appreciate it.

@GlowGPT please help me with this topic!

Birth control ?

I have been on the implant birth control since 2022 can you get pregnant while on it and do you ovulate and does it mess with your period from heavy to light?

Advice

So a guy that I have been seeing, want to start getting physical. I plan to get an implant in the arm so I can reduce the risks. My main question is, do you let your partner orgasm inside you? I never had sex and he makes me feel safe and comfortable to make that step. But I also want the full experience without a condom but while having an implant. Any thoughts?

Its likely the hormones when I got mine in I got it put in during my period so I can't say from experience but from what I know its likely the hormones.

My implant is severely effecting my mental health.

I have always had anxiety (doctor diagnosed) and I got the implant 3 weeks ago. I shared my concerns about it effecting my anxiety before getting it fitted and the nurse assured me that I would be fine. This past week I have been so low in my mood & crying every couple hours without a reason, and my anxiety has been through the roof and I'm having frequent panic attacks, and there's no trigger or reason behind it. The only thing I can put it down to is hormonal changes from the implant, I'm seriously considering just getting it taken out asap, know your meant to give it time but I just feel so terrible. What would you advise?

Implant procedure Nerves

I’m planning to get the implant. I struggle with the pills and really not keen on getting the coil.I’m incredibly nervous about the whole appointment and would appreciate any advice or information on what happens..I already don’t like injections but how did it feel getting it put in? Also, the removal process? The more I know the better!

Nothing at all to worry about! I was the same, but literally you barely feel the needle that numbs it and then you don’t feel the implant go in at all, except for a little bit of movement but no pain!

Honestly the implant in the arm fucked up my periods so much its a risk with progesteron only birth control you can take a test to ease your mind but its unlikely you are pregnant.
