Thinking of switching to the birth control implant! I'm 19 and have been taking the Ortho Tricyclen pill for 6 years. I have been with my boyfriend for 3 years. I'm getting tired of the pill and would like something low-maintenance. Out of the choices, I want to try the implant first.
My question is a little odd but I can't find anything online. I know the implant has a very high success rate, but what happens if it fails and you become pregnant? It's common for your period to disappear or to only come a few times a year... Would you get normal pregnancy symptoms?
