Hi,
It is not normal to have high blood pressure at this age. What is your BMI? One reason for your high blood pressure could be you being overweight. You must reduce weight. This is important for your overall well being too.
I advise you to first consult physician to find out the cause for high blood pressure and get it treated.
You can have the Implanon inserted while being treated for high blood pressure. There is no problem with it.
I hope I have answered to your satisfaction.
