Have Implanon. No Period. Negative Serum Pregnancy Test. Lower Stomach Pain, Back Pain, Tender Abdomen. Pregnant?
I have had implanon for over a year and a half with no period whatsoever. My implanon seems bent/broken, I have taken a serum pregnancy test which came back neg. Is there a possibility I could be pregnant? I have no children so I do not know any of the symptoms. My lower stomach and back ache constantly, my lower abdomen is very tender to the touch.

Hello,
If you suspect that your implant is disturbed, then you should see your doctor for a check up and removal of the implant if it is not properly placed. If you are planning for a pregnancy now, get a thorough gynecological examination which should also exclude an unidentified pregnancy. You should also exclude other things which have similar symptoms like a urinary infection. You may get a sonogram done that should confirm if you are pregnant. Take care.
