My partner and I have been TTC for 6 months now.

I had the implanon in my arm, but it snapped and had to be removed. I was adviced to use no hormonal contraception, as it may cause problems while my body works to rid itself of the extra hormones that I recieved when my implanon snapped in my arm. My partner and I took it as a sign to be more careful, until I ended up in hospital with ruptured cysts on my ovaries from the extra hormones. I was realesed from hospital with advice not to use any contraceptives or lubes that may have added hormones. We discussed the problem and decided that we were ready for a baby, so are now trying to make a baby :)

I am 22 and my partner is 24, and we are both so excited for the journey ahead of us.
